Rhino workflow

Hi! I'm looking to take a Rhino file into Revit. I was able to save the Rhino as a ACIS file and create a massing family in Revit and import that way. However, I need to apply materials in Revit. Is there a way to do that with the massing family I've created? Would that happen in the family editor or in the main Revit file? Do I need to import each material as a separate ACIS file? I'm not super concerned with having the beams I made in Rhino really be beams in Revit (like for scheduling purposes or anything), but I do need to render the materials in Revit. Any ideas? Thanks!

Export each material as a SAT file will work. Do SAT files support layers like in DWG? If so, you can have multiple materials in one SAT file.

Hi @Anonymous

Please check the link HERE on importing a Rhino (.SAT) file into a Revit project.

To specify the material properties of an imported SAT file

  1. Right-click the drawing screen. Click View Properties.
  2. In the Element Properties dialog box, click the Edit button of the Visibility parameter.
  3. On the Imported Categories tab of the Visibility/Graphic dialog box, click Object Styles.
  4. In the Object Styles dialog box, select the SAT file and select a material from the material column.
  5. Click OK to close each dialog box.

Thanks for your help, @Viveka_CD. I'm having issues placing the family into my model because I'm getting an error, "Mass contains only mesh geometry, which can’t be used to compute Mass Floors, volume, or surface area."

I did try just importing the file as a .SAT and as a .3DM directly into the Revit model, but I wasn't able to find the view properties menu or use the Visibility/Graphics menu to change the material.

If you've got any suggestions, that would really help! Thanks!
