Export from Revit to CAESER II

[boutheynamzoughui]

Hello

Does Revit can export in a version that allows the Software CAESAR II for stress analyses to read it 

knowing that CAESAR II can read only neutral file or .CII

I've tried to export from Revit to Autocad , then from autocad to CII but didn't work!

Any help please !

Explain "neutral file", what does that mean?

From the few I know, I would suggest you to model your pipes directly in CEASAR II , and have your pipe stress analysis done quickly and correctly.

That way it will be far easier and more effective to do your work, than trying to do the conversion from Revit.

Besides, Revit is mainly focused on building installations and not on Industrial Plants Proccess Installations.

thanks for replying
This will take so much time especially if the installation is big and will be like " double work"

Neutral file is a file read from CAESAR II

Then Revit does not export to those formats.

I note that on the Hexagon website they say it integrates with 3D cad modelling but it then names specific software packages. I think you’re going to have to do it the long way and rebuild the model in Caesar.
