Revit - Corrupt central model

Hello my fellow Revitites!

 

I have a question for you all. I am currently the BIM babysitter on a pretty big project taking place in London. The Revit model is on a central server, which is then split (local copies created) and worked on by staff in 3 offices. London, Cardiff and Singapore. Recently an error message keeps appearing on three on the models used (7 in total). It says cannot synchronize to central until the model is repaired (I will attach a screenshot if I can). I personally have run a repair on two of these models and it works. Then a few days later I will get an email saying it has happened again. 

 

I have been through the projects and cleared unused families and any corrupt families I have cleaned up and re-inserted back into the models. I have audited the models when opening etc etc but still getting the same error.

 

Has anyone had this error? If so, did you remedy this and how? We are losing hours of work due to having to repair the central with a local and others not being able to sync their changes.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Dave C

first thing is obviously repair the source (central file)

to do this the cleanest possible way is to confirm all users are out of the file (local and central) in all locations.

while opening the central file perform an Audit on the file.

if this does not solve the issue, the next approach is to recreate the central file from a latest complete known local file.

open the valid local file and detach from central preserve worksets and run and Audit on this file.

when completely open do a save as and save over the bad file on the Revit server (do not give it a different name).

next have all users delete any record of their local files and folders from their PC's.

confirm that all users are on the same version (current build number) of Revit, if some have a lesser build number this will cause issues you are experiencing.

confirm all users are using the SYNC now option and ARE RELINQUISHING ALL MINE FREQUNETLY.

you are dealing with Time Zone issues and possibly hardware issues.

To prevent corrupt files in the future: is it possible to split the project into different models? I.e. Facade - structure - architecture - interior?

"The Revit model is on a central server, which is then split (local copies created) and worked on by staff in 3 offices" I'm guessing each office has their specialty, so maybe each office can have its own model.

Thanks for the responses both. We seem to have stymied the flow or errors for the time. I have spent a fair bit of time auditing, removing, reloading different aspects in our models. 

 

I suspect that this is an issue from before I came on to the project. An inheritance issue. I have found that the ways the models were set up to begin with weren't great and/or best for performance.

 

Once again, thanks for the help.

 

KR,

Hello All,

Just a quick question. Am I able to repair a corrupt Revit model while it's linked into another Revit file that is being used?

Thanks
