    Question Imperial Units to Metric Units

    Can Revit convert easily to metric units and dimensions from imperial units?
    Also, can a Revit model be converted to Bently BIM model?
    The government projects we are working now are requiring the final models to be in Bently BIM. Who wants to learn that stuff after trying to learn Revit the last few years?
    Thanks

    Default Re: Imperial Units to Metric Units

    I do work that involves switching back and forth between Metric and Imperial. Just go into the Project Units dialogue box and select Meters and Centimeters. If the Units Format in your dimension type is set to "use Project Settings" all the dimensions will automatically change.

    The other way to do this without changing the Project Units, is to have a Metric dimension type with the "use project settings" box unchecked, and then switch the feet and inches dimension type with the Metric dimension type.
