How to duplicate same floor with all the elements on a new floor level.

Hello, I am constructing a 23-floor office building on which the 7th floor is typical up to the 14th floor. Having the same set of walls doors and all other stuff. I hereby want to know how do I multiply that same typical floor up to the 14th floor. If someone does know please do the needful. This could save me time as well as efforts. Thanks.

I think I can help 😄
Select all the items that need to be copied then click on copy to clipboard (Ctrl+C) then click on the arrow below Paste and select aligned to selected level then select the desired level.

Even before copying, I advise you to select all the elements of a typical floor and combine them into a group. After that, if we need to change something on the typical floor, we will correct the elements in the group and the change will be displayed immediately in all groups.

Best regards, Pavel Plotitsyn.

Yes this could be the solution but there is even an alternate way that i have discovered. Creating that floor on new revit sheet and linking that file to the building model could really save the size as compared to copying each elements multiple times. This could save the time as well as processor efforts to run the project efficiently. Give a like if you agree!

You could either work with Model Group (whole floor as one or by grouping by discipline) OR by Linked Model...or a mix of both...any of these methods would be suitable and can serve the same purpose; however, each method has its own workflow and certain particulars to be considered in a workshare environment.

 

7 floors isn't really big to gimp the model due to processing power requirements...you should be more concerned on how you manage the workflow … This is one discussion on Linked model vs model groups and there are many you could find on the subject discussing pros and cons https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-architecture-forum/model-groups-vs-linked-models-2019/m-p/9271225#M269173
