Revit levels are thousands of millimetres off!

Ive just opened this revit file my colleague has been working on and all the levels are about 322,000mm out! GFFL should be zero! Ive worked on this model before and the levels were all fine

 

Not sure what the best way to fix it is - should i just move everything vertically? or has the project base point been moved accidentally? When i click on this, everything is 0

 

Ive attached screenshots

Is it possible to drop the rvt here just with one of the levels, and all model elements and project information purged?

Cheers, K

Move the project based point to where you want the level to be zero.

Is that a Link inside another Project?  

 

...hard to make head or tails based off of your screenshots, but the building doesn't look like it's too high. It looks like the Levels are not showing Elevation relative to the Project Base Point. What's the Level Properties indicate as the Elevation Base?  Survey Point?

thanks, i did wonder if that was a possibility but didn't want to risk messing it up.

I'll give that a try and get back to you!

 

i think my colleague imported an autocad survey file, which is since deleted - could this have messed it up?

seems like the level datum are set to read level from Survey point ... Try the following

  1. Select a Level
  2. Edit Type
  3. Change to Project Base Point

Based on your Screenshots, it looks to me like the Model and Levels are coming from a LINK.  Also, it looks like the Project Base Point and Survey Point in your Screenshots are originating from the Internal Origin of the PARENT Project.
