The coordination model .NWD method mentioned in the article does not allow dimensioning in Revit. Not a great work around. We're trying to use sub contractor .DWGs to coordinate horizontal penetration drawings. We're using all Autodesk products, this should not be that difficult, would love to see it improved.
It is very common for 3D pipe geometry to be shown in section, for example:
civil services - including sewers and underground utilities such as water and gas pipes
building services - incuding pipes and drains
I echo @coneil5 who mentions the need to dimension sub-contractor DWG's in Revit
Effective sectioning of Civil 3D, Plant 3D and DWG geometry in Revit has been a significant prodictivity drag on very large construction projects including Hospitals, Hyperscale Data Centres and complex Pharma manufacturing projects that I have been involved in.
This is a great opportunity for Autodesk or a third party developer, to address a real pain point with architects, engineers, constructors and project owners so that Revit can product legible and dimensionable sections of pipes.
Thanks.
Key to examples:
A - Plant 3D Geometry in Revit (pipe vectors only showing)
B - modified geometry (good example)
C - Civil 3D water pipes in Revit (approximated circles - poor resolution)
Yes, this is long overdue. Need to be able to have 3D cad geometry cut in plans, sections, elevations, etc. by the view extents/range, just like we all expect.
