When I export from .rvt to .nwc file, the concrete family is moved

Hi there. 

I'm having some serious trouble with this, if anyone have any suggestion I would be very greatful. 

 

I'm working on a reinforced concrete bridge model at Revit. Each concrete element is modeled in a separeted rvt file and then we have a central file with all the elements liked togheter where we make up the bridge. 

I need to export the entire model to a .nwc file (export the file with a lot of rvt links), but  when I do this, Navisworks shows some element in a very diferent position when compared to Revit. 

 

I'm stuck with whis for several days and can't find a solution. 

 

I attached two images: one from Revit screen before exporting and another after exporting to Navisworks. We can see that one link remains at the same location and the other has just been moved.

 

Thank you so much for the attention.

Hi @filippialbuquerque 

 

Please try the same with Revit 2021 and Navisworks 2021.

If the issue persists, please post Your example Revit file.

1- check the Export setting Used

2- check the Coordinates System in this files they are must be the same shared coordinates or Project base point

3- Same Version for Revit and Navisworks 

Any Additional info tag me

Hi @Rafal.Gaweda , than you for your reply.

I don't have access to Revit or Navis 2021 today, because my workstation is running with Revit and Navis 2020. But I will try this solution on another computer and present the results here. 
By the way, I attached the files, I used both Revit and Navis 2020.


Thank you!

Hi @Mohamed-Nassar , thank you for your reply. 


I tried different export settings and nothing worked for me.
I tried the coordinate as internal and shared as well.
These two linked files have the same origin and I used the same version for both softwares, 2020.

I attached my files in the post above.

I found this very strange ...


Thank you !
