Link ACAD Insert (surveyor's dwg)

[tstewart]

How to insert, orientate and scale Surveyor's dwg. into Revit?

[L.Maas]

When you link a DWG you have settings for scal;e (import units)

Auto detect usually works. If the dwg is drawn with the wrong units you can set a custom scale.

After loading you can move/rotate the dwg (maybe need to unpin first).

The inserted Cad file is not showing on the Revit model. HELP!

Can you upload your drawing? Most cases you would set the surveyor drawing as Meters (work outside of US) or Feet (US)

@L.Maas@tstewart 
In autocad you can always check with DDunits 

If this helped you please accept this as a solution.

The inserted CAD file  is not showing on the Site Plan. Is there a way to see the dwg on the Site Plan (Revit 2021)?

@tstewart 
Im not sure what I'm looking at on the pdf.
Are you sure that your settings in Visibility Graphics (VV) (or view template) are set so that linked dwg's are visible?
When you linked the dwg, did you tick the box only visible in current view?

I’m not sure that the settings are correct ot link dwg., so is there a way to check?

I’m still having issues.
