Changing elevation of linked models

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi, I have a rather complex problem(or hopefully not)

 

So I have 4 separate revit architecture models, each of them has its own linked construction, hvac and electrical links from our contractors. They all are placed on same survey point, and all of these models have project base point elevation set to 0.

 

Now, I need to make a site plan model, which uses all of these 4 models - as links.

When linked these files do place themselves correctly according to shared coordinates.

 

The problem is that I need to change elevations of each of those linked models - they should have different "0" level elevation values.

 

When I just try to move one of links in the site model up - it gives me an error:

87369101_225285625178117_3180522517907374080_n.png

 

and when I change Project Base Point elevation value - all the nested links(structure,mep) stay on old value - and everything is just broken.

 

any suggestions?

Just move it up, press save now or save later through manage links...? Shouldn't that do the trick? What's your workflow?

open each of the links and correct the location of the project. this can be done by editing the Project Base Point elevation or use the Relocate Project tool under Manage ribbon > Project Location panel > Position. Since there linked next time you open the site plan they should correct themselves.

It wasn't an error. Click the Save Now button to publish the new location back to the links and you are okay.

it is a warning, not ERROR. Just follow through.
