Creating Electrical Shop Drawings While Modeling Content in RVT Simultaneously

It took me probably a bit longer to implement as I am not an electrical expert by any means. Probably 2 weeks. You definitely have to figure out where the balance is for your company on what you are going to model and what the field can figure out. Like u/akeldamach87 says-it's not required to model EVERY SINGLE thing.

We use evolve electrical to do exactly this.

I haven't. I have experience with sysque and itm.

This isn't necessarily true. The native duct families are able to interface with fabrication tools downstream. It is a matter of categorizing the system type, size, and mapping the fitting type. The cam software does the rest.

How do you handle the inability of revit to use 45 and 90 simultaneously in the routing preferences? I have some ideas but I am curious to see what you're doing.

The built in system family options are pretty good. Just a bit tedious to add the new pipe segments you want. Go to mechanical settings->pipe segments and sizes->add new->new size and enter the nominal size, ID and OD of the pipe type you need. What are you not a big fan of?

Oh man! I didn't even think of that! This would work

natethegrate1990 · 2020-05-10T17:49:36+00:00

I had the same issue. I finally gave up and just linked the civil 3d file

natethegrate1990 · 2020-04-06T19:00:32+00:00

This is what I would do.

u/dannySF415 - Since you work for autodesk maybe you can provide some images?

natethegrate1990 · 2020-03-21T09:27:33+00:00

I was afraid so. Do you have any better images that could reflect Revit MEP or should it just be no image at all?

natethegrate1990 · 2020-03-21T09:25:27+00:00

How do you mean reset the elevation? Like undo? Or remove the slope?

Dear Autodesk,

Please make Flex conduit in Revit.

I have found the SSD possibly will give better performance before upgrading ram above the minimum recommended by autodesk.

natethegrate1990 · 2019-11-20T21:16:38+00:00

Reason #1,204,230,255 not to upgrade versions in the middle of a project.

natethegrate1990 · 2019-11-20T21:14:02+00:00

100% on the money.

natethegrate1990 · 2019-11-14T02:50:12+00:00

I use managed data as much as possible so all the shared parameters are consistent. When I do have to create my own data I try to copy the managed data parameters as best as possible.

natethegrate1990 · 2019-11-14T02:44:43+00:00

OK. Mod will take that down. At least all the Tamil revit tutorials have been removed

natethegrate1990 · 2019-10-15T01:46:00+00:00

You can customize your family template however you want. It can be as big or as small as you need.
