Hey everyone. I have a received a model of an apartment building. The room styles/types were drawn in individual models. I linked the individual room style/type models into the main building model and everything lines up fine.
The problem is when I try to link the main building model & the room models into a different model they don't line up, so I'm trying to bind the room models into the building model, save the architectural model that way & have a full & complete architectural model that I can then link into my MEP model.
Unfortunately, I'm having some troubles binding the room models (see screencast). When I try to bind the rooms without any details, levels or grids I get some weird thing that spans out way off to the side of the building. When I try to bind with attached details, I get the same result. When I try to bind with levels and/or grids, naturally, I get the rooms levels & grids that show up in the building model. However, the when the room models were drawn, they were drawn with a different grid numbering system than the building model. This is causing a bunch incorrect level and grid numbers & letters to start showing up.
Is there a way to bind these without levels & grids and not get some strange thing to show up spanning way off to the side of the building?
Have you checked the 66 errors that are being thrown? I'd start there myself. "Expand" and drill down to see what's happening.
I tried just binding 1 room instead of all of them to reduce the number of duplicate errors. Took the number down to just 5. The errors look like some renaming of some level heads, some overlapping walls, and a bunch of deleted elements with id numbers, and I have no idea what those all mean
Something else I just noticed that seems kinda funky. I'm not sure what this means.
Yeah, you got a sh*t-load of errors and troubleshooting to do. Don't know what to tell you other than you got some work cut out for you. It's nothing that can be resolved by posting about it. It's a compilation of things. As for the Deleted Elements, I would investigate those IDs before Binding to see what's being blown out of the Project.
I was hoping it was just some small thing I was overlooking. However, when I clicked ungroup it looks normal. Is that a viable solution, do you think?
Ungrouped
I would not bind them. What if they send a new set of files later? You will be going through the whole thing again? Ask them to establish shared coordinates in the main model and publish to the child models. Then you will have no issue with alignment when linking the model with its (attachment) links.
If this was being done for typical coordination, I would 100% agree. However, this isn't one of those cases; everything is pretty much finalized (unless we see something suggesting a change like shifting a stool or flipping a tub). They are starting to dig footings and foundations on site next week. We requested the models just so we could do your own drawings and prefab them.
