Help inserting Rhino file into Revit

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi there,

I am trying to insert a couple rhino files into my revit project, as just a mass. But I am having issue and I cant seem to work it out.

 

I have tried exporting as SAT, SKP, and DWG and Rhino, from Rhino. And then again from sketchup.

 

Revit throws up errors such as "Revit cannot import some of the geometry.
This result can be caused by various issues with the source file.Adjust the geometry in the file and try the import process again."

 

Just looking for any help as they are fairly complex models and I want to avoid redoing it in Revit.

I have also linked all the relevant files, (although exported the rhino models to 3DS files as it wont allow 3dm )

 

Revit 2019 

 

I cant just about insert it as  DWG but that doesnt render well at all.

Thanks!
- Kieran

I don't know what to tell you. "4RevitChurch" seems fine, but "4RevitArmyHall" is broken to smithereens.

Hey,

A late response, but a useful one. I have similar experiences related to my models getting disoriented when I export from Rhino to Revit. Then I came across the BIMDeX plugins which helped me in the transfer of files from Rhino to Revit without any loss of data. You can try them as well
