I have been attempting to print a building model (exported as an .stl file via Autodesk's plugin) of a hotel my company is working on. The Revit file I am working with is exterior features only so the building is a hollow shell made up of the precast/window wall systems. When the model is scaled down to the 6-8 wide printing size, these walls haven become too thin to print and the printer just wants to print the baseplate I added and the roofs. It will print supports as necessary but nothing for walls.
Is there an easy way to "fill" in the interior of the model with a solid mass that connects with all interior wall surfaces in Revit? I have been slowly (as each step takes upwards of an hour to work through) converting the imported .stl file in inventor and attempting various methods to fill it in. What I am hoping is that I am missing something in Revit that will allow me to retain some of the details (punched window locations etc) but still print this as a solid object, Or will this process just be unfeasable due to the time it takes to get a printable model.
