Title: Revit - Export Exteriors to 3D
Post by: MSTG007 on October 20, 2015, 03:37:11 PM

Just thinking out there. Is there a way to export just the outer face of the building and roof. Basically just the outside of the building (nothing inside) to a 3D Model? I was curious if I could do that, then import that into a dwg. Xref that into a design file (Grading Utility) just to see if everything lines up. (Roof Drains, steps, cleanouts) stuff like that. Again just a thought.

Create a 2D view, turn off/hide the interior walls then use the info provided >>here (http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=50289.msg554273#msg554273)<< to align to a civil drawing.

I guess that answers it. I do appreciate the links you provided earlier. This just came up and we are trying to make sure everything aligns up.

and our you could use Navisworks to export those items and then import to Civil 3d....IBX file I think is the ticket
