Civil infrastructure like bridges, tunnels, retaining walls are mostly in complex alignments with multiple spirals, curves, lines. When you need to show longitudinal section of the structure its impossible. We can not make accurate formworks drawings due to that. We can not show rebar distribution in longitudinal section, when element is in any type of curve. When we need to annotate section of any adaptive component, dimensions are snapped to first start or end of the element, not the vie of the section.   Show More

Would it be feasible to add a polyline feature in Revit similar to AutoCad's, with the ability to tag length or area if polyline is closed, and attach the symbols at start or end?     Show More

At present Toposolid Subdivisions must follow the Phasing, Workset & Design Option settings directly from the host subdivisions. When working with existing ground surfaces this causes significant issues - as we are having to create multiple instances of the exact same toposolid just so we can have Subdivisions which represent different possible design outcomes and stages.    For instance in the example below the subdivisions marked X need to be given a "New Construction" Phase Demolished (just as the adjacent walls do) - however they can't be without also altering the Phase Demolished of other adjacent  subdivisions marked O.     If we could control these independent of their host toposolids these issues would be avoided.

to improve the bim to field workflow in site design we would be thankful if you could implement a command to export coordinate points (x,y,z) to excel or a similar text file. it could either be the corner points of slabs/walls etc. or manually set point coordinates. in our current workflow we have to export the revit project to dwg and set points (block) in autocad manually. then we extract the data out of the chosen blocks and generate an excel file. (automatic command) would it be possible to implement the same command from autocad in revit? Show More

It would be great if we can link a Civil 3D file into Revit and then being able to get/use Civil 3D alignment contained in the linked file within Revit. For example to be able to place object at a specific alignment station , with an offset from the alignment itslef in the horizontal plan and an offset or elevation in the vertical direction. This can be elaborate defining some angle around the alignment station as well. Thne when the alignment will be updated in Civil 3D, then Revit objects will be updated accordingly. This can be achieved using Dynamo and the Civil Connection Package but getting this capability out of the box in Revit would really streamline the workflow between those 2 pieces of software.

It is great to be able to split toposolids using Split Element. Unfortunately we can't do this with Subdivisions? It would be a great improvement if we could.   I know there is already an approved idea for splitting floors ... so maybe just throw this in while you are at it? Show More

Grading Optimization (GO) has proved to be a great external application for manipulating surfaces in Civil 3D. It can be used to calculate near perfect cut / fill with a great degree of control - and even a decent level of smoothness! A version is now 'On the Radar' for Infraworks but nothing on Revit at this point.   How good would it be to be able to set a Filled Region as a grading limit, another as a Zone / Building Platform and then select a Toposolid and have GO produce one for us?   Show More

HI There is a great feature in FormIt that we can specify the Location online and it will generate the topography by clicking on Import. In my opinion, Revit should improve its structure by several steps and add these features that are needed for all users to Revit. Set Location Create Topography Show More

As C3D takes reference from maps and topography, why not Revit? This would boost the use of Revit software in infrastructure projects, which often have significantly larger budgets than building projects. Show More

With the permission of one of the users, I wanted to present an enhancement request for Revit. At the moment in Revit it is necessary to convert coordinates to X and Y from 0,0. Users reported that it would be good if there was a possibility to choose the system of coordinates, as it is for example in Civil 3D:     This way, in Revit, it will be possible to work with the desired coordinate system without having to exchange data between Revit and Civil 3D. Additionally, it also has to do with later incorrect values when the model is viewed in Forge Viewer. Model location does not match X and Y values set in Revit. Show More

Hi everyone, I wanted to bring up a feature that I think would be incredibly useful in Revit, already available in AutoCAD. In AutoCAD, adding hatch patterns and custom line types is very straightforward, which many users, especially those in countries like Czechia, Slovakia, and other Slavic regions, rely on for infrastructure projects. In Revit, while we can add hatch patterns, we don't have the same ease of importing custom line types. It would be great if Revit had an import button for line types, similar to the one we have for patterns. This would allow users to upload .lin or .patt files and select the appropriate line type for their projects. I believe this feature should have been implemented long ago, and it would be a valuable addition to the Revit product suite. It would make the transition from AutoCAD to Revit smoother for many users and enhance Revit's functionality overall.   Something like this:   Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this!

The possibility to create "Parts" from infrastructure user-created families (Abutments, Piers, Bridge Decks....) Very important in Design-Build projects when the contractor/fabricator use the model after the design phase.   Make the option similar to the "Generic Model" category see images          Show More

Is it possible to get Infrastructure as a discipline so we can isolate hidden lines for Bridge Decks, Abutments etc? Currently, need to have hidden lines set to all.     Show More

Only a minor adjustment, but I find when using the measuring tool it is difficult to see what the measurement actually reads, and when you try to zoom in, the text size stays the same on the screen. It would be great if the text size were to get bigger here along with everything else in the view.  Show More

Seems like its not possible to reverse back or forward inside of revit where you access the structure of windows folders using mouse(button 4-5).  Thinking this should work just as Windows or any other software being used inside of Windows.    But here I am, possible to add this "function" in order to make it easier to navigate inside of revit?   See images below for examples.  Red box is what I use to back out of folders.               Show More

A means to check & correct spelling of view names would be useful.   Show More

Toposolids are great, but they have very limited options. Automatic slopes button for large excavations, road embankments, river banks, berms or other earthworks would be very useful. Not just fot landscaping, but for roads and urbanscaping like fences, sewer drains, etc. Toposolids should host roads and walkways (and create typical sections for that as well).  Show More

Please enhance features of linked topography from Civil 3D file, such hosting trees (site category), street lights (structural foundations category).  Currently, it is good that we can directly link topography from civil 3D file, but it will be great if hosting feature is added to it.    Show More

Even though Revit and Civil 3D share the same licence through the AEC Collection, the licensing of maps is specific to AutoCAD-based software.  If I use Nearmap, I can get the georeferenced image into Revit via Civil 3D, however, the built-in Online Maps from Civil 3D will not come into Revit.    The request is as follows:  Once an online map (copyrighted to the following; Microsoft Corporation, maxar, CNFS Distribution Airbus, Tom Tom) is captured in Civil 3D, please allow that image to be viewed in Revit via a link to current view only (just as it works with Nearmap).
