Import CAD superhatch into Revit

Dear Revit users,

I want to import a CAD import in the from of superhatch into Revit.

Problem is that when it is imported it gets exploded.

Have you encountered similar problem? Do you have any idea how I could habdle it? 

PS. Creating this pattern as material pattern wouldn't work, because the floors are modified as sub-elements, "breaking" the pattern (I hope you can understand what I'm saying)

I don't understand what you are trying to do.    

 

...maybe you want to import the CAD into an In-Place Mass environment, Finish and Close out and apply a Wall or Roof by [Mass] Face.

Just importing the upper drawing into the projects. The CAD drawing (upper pic) contains a superhatch, which when inserted explodes and doesn't keep the outline (bottom pic)

What's the game plan? To create a Revit element from this CAD element?

Yes. I want the Cad Element to exist in the project to be visible in all views

My only problem is it gets exploded and I don't know how to overcome this

Just try to import this file into Revit you'll get exactly what the problem is and maybe an idea how to get around it

Is this the game plan?

Yes but the shape of the region of the pattern should be in the shape of the floor as in CAD.

Can you share the model of the floor with edited sub-elements?

@ToanDN Thanks a lot for joining this thread. As you have correctly spotted the material pattern option won't work due to the edited floor. The solution @barthbradley provided is very helpful even though it will not do the trick yet. 

The rvt and dwg files are attached at this reply

An AutoCAD 'Superhatch' is basically a block inserted multiple times and then clipped along the edges. Since Revit doesn't honour clipped DWG's, you'll be served the 'original' version. And then there's the problem Revit doesn't do a very good job in aligning surface patterns on things like floors with sub-elements. In a plan view, you could use a Region, but that won't show in 3D. As far as I know, there's no easy solution for this....

 

A very VERY dirty solution would be to (in AutoCAD) explode the Superhatch and use Extrim to trim the edges and then load the dwg into Revit.

How can it fail when the ability isn't there? Maybe the failure is in expecting things from Revit that it just doesn't do.

 

BTW, your comment would be better served in the Product Feedback forum. This is a user help forum.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

I’m still not clear on what is so insurmountable here.  You really haven’t explained what you want Revit – a BIM software – to do with your AutoCAD “Superhatch” and linework. But I can easily create a BIM element from it – as I’ve shown above.  What does the “Superhatch” represent in the real world anyways?  Pavers? Scoring? Striping?
