Hi,
How do Revit architects re-use the structural engineers Revit model?
More specifically, do you re-use the .rvt objects that the engineer creates (linking etc), then use face-based architectural families to apply surfaces to structural floors, wall and columns - or not?
I'm an ACAD veteran, so the thought of re-modelling what the engineer has already modeled is not so appealing!
I suspect the problem is in the layers in compound objects. Simply put, the engineers wall is 'inside' my wall, but Revit doesn't really recognize this parametrically through the linking process (unless I use face-based families right?)
Thanks in advance!
