I made an architectural model then copied this file and stripped it for all but structural elements, for a structural model. Now can I set up monitoring between these models without actually doing copy, since the elements are already there? What are the correct steps to do this?

I have requirements to have separate structural and architectural models (separate Revit files). And the structural shall be linked into the architectural model. I wasn't aware exactly what that linking technically entailed, so I started out with the architectural model and completed it. Now I have two finished models. One being mostly a stripped copy of the other, with minor modifications and different views and drawings.

Here is how I would do given you already made two files:
- Open Architectural file, create a Link_Structural workset
- Link Structural file in as Overlay, origin to origin, change it to the workset above
- Go over the model and delete Architectural elements overlapping Structural elements
- Go back to Structural file and do the first two steps (with different workset naming of course)
- Most of the time that is all you need. Update one model will reflect on the other when you reload the link
- You can choose to Monitor the link but IMHO it's unnecessary.
- Some people choose to copy/monitor element from one model to another. I would only copy/monitor Levels and Grids, not actual building elements.
