Looking for Construction Site Families

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I am after some construction site families, such as:

- Excavator,

- dump truck,

- piling driver/rigger...

But I’m unable to find the 3D models for free. 

If you have these families or know a good source to find them it would be fantastic if you share with me. 

Cheers

Broaden your search criteria.  Revit is perfectly capable of importing other formats. I bet you could find Sketchup Models of these on-line and for free in two shakes of a lamb's tail.   If the SKP won't import directly into Revit, which sometimes happen, you can import the SKP directly into AutoCAD using the free "ImportSKP" add-in, save and then insert the dwg into Revit.   

...Just downloaded and inserted this SKP directly into Revit. Took only one shake of the lamb's tail.  

Here's where I found it:

For OBJ to Revit consider the following app

Consider using MeshLab to optimize OBJs prior to Revit conversion, but the fewer triangles the better. 17K seems smooth enough for dump truck.
