Link Revit plans into Autocad

Alright kiddos, ill be straight up, i'm 99% sure what i'm about to ask is not possible, but its worth a shot:

 

So our company has been drafted to draw a bunch of stuff onto Autocad plans that we need to export from a Revit model (i'm aware its ridiculous and they should provide the DWG's but that's another story.)

This project could last a year and we are concerned we will waste time exporting and cleaning drawings near constantly to keep up with their changes.

 

So what i'm asking is, as we can link DWG's to Revit, is it in any way possible to do the same thing the other way around? i mean, directly i cant see how its possible because there has to be a conversion process somewhere...

 

But is there some kind of add-on? A Dynamo script? A button Autodesk added without telling us? link to another program then into AutoCad? any ideas to make this process as simple as possible?

 

Cheers!

You could try the following:

Export the relevant Revit drafting views to a folder as DWGs. 

Insert these as xrefs into the AutoCAD file.  When the details change, export them again with the same names to the same folder, effectively over-riding the previous versions.

Refresh the xrefs in AutoCAD.

DWG's from Revit are meant to be more for backgrounds and not for production work.

 

If you have to do production work in Autocad then I suggest to stay in Autocad as working with what comes out of Revit is very, um, hair pulling, as nothing will work the way one is used to in Autocad.

Be careful of what you wish for. I would much rather do my own exporting. With good drawing export settings, you probably can get exactly what you need with little to no cleanup. You most likely won't get that from the Reviteers in the other office.

I almost stopped at this. Most of us are professionals and a little respect goes a long way when asking for help.

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

Setup dedicated views for Export. Save the DWGs to a set folder. Ask the CAD team to use the export DWGs as XREFs to draft over, and not edit them directly. When the Revit model changes, export again override the old DWGs and they only need to reload the XREFs.
