This course is designed to give you an insider view of not only how we technically share Civil 3D models with Revit,
00:07
but proven workflows on how we exchange site information, geolocations, and topography
00:13
to truly collaborate between civil engineering, building engineering, and, of course, architecture.
00:19
In this learning track, we'll offer three courses, which starts with the new glue that provides the coordination I just mentioned.
00:25
To start it off, we'll work in BIM 360.
00:27
We start by simply setting up a BIM 360 project.
00:30
Then we'll move on to adding users to a BIM 360 project. You can't just be in there alone.
00:36
And the biggest part is exporting a topography from Civil 3D to BIM 360 so that we can collaborate within Revit.
00:44
Now, the next most important thing is geolocating the project.
00:47
So, in this course, we'll prepare a Civil 3D model to be geolocated by cleaning it up.
00:52
Then we'll make sure we set the geolocation in the Civil 3D model so we can bring it into Revit.
00:59
And finally, we're going to jump into setting up Revit.
01:01
We're going to finalize the Revit model by pulling in the coordinates from Civil 3D.
01:07
Then we're going to move an existing linked Revit model.
01:10
The chances are you probably already have a project set up with links in there on either origin to origin or center to center.
01:17
We need to move those coordinates over to our shared coordinate system.
01:21
And finally, we'll learn how to link a toposurface from BIM 360.
01:25
Once you're done with this, you still might not be a Revit expert.
01:28
People tell me I'm a Revit expert, but you know, I'm not so sure.
01:31
I do know one thing, though.
01:33
You are going to look like a Revit expert because you will know exactly how to do one of the main things people avoid:
01:39
shared coordinates and sharing data with your civil engineer.
