I am new to revit. bare with me if this is a naive question.
A lot of research is done, but somehow I find it difficult to understand.
Here is the scenario
company a : main contractor (using revit)
company b : mep company (using revit)
company c : sub system supplier (using autocad)
Here is the workflow.
- company a and b are using shared coordinates in revit. and company a exports a nwd using shared coordinates for everybody to use. company b is also using it for clash detection. so it has to be shared coordinates.
- company c are expected to create a dwg based on the nwd. the dwg and nwd will need to be matched in navis for company c to proceed its work.
- company a will need to bring in the company c's AutoCAD model to do a federated model in revit and export a federated nwd.
- the cycle will repeat
Here are two questions.
- how company c figure out where is the origin to model in AutoCAD ?
- how company a make sure the AutoCAD model can be merged in revit effortlessly ?
