As I am looking at the Technical School sample files located here, I am noticing that the Architectural / Structural models and the MEP model are NOT coordinated. After re-positioning the project base points in all three models to the same location (at the intersection of grids H and 10 -- by the way, why aren't these points already in the same location in the models???), I linked the models together using "Auto - Project Base Point to Project Base Point" and the result is concerning. It appears that the architectural and structural models are (for the most part -- there are some elements not corresponding) in alignment properly, however the MEP model does NOT match the modeled conditions in the A & S models. See images below. Why is Autodesk providing sample models that are not coordinated and not modeled in a way that represents an integrated design? What am I missing here?
Here is the suggested idea...get all of these sample models updated and coordinated. This would be helpful in demonstrating that coordination is possible when sharing models across disciplines.
