We have a school project which is just beginning on site.

One of the new blocks being built is based on a structural frame, hence we have a structural grid. At present this grid has been drawn in Revit and fixed via dimensions. Our contractors would now prefer us to adopt a co-ordinated method as they feel this will be easier to locate slab penetrations etc rather than using dimensions. We have been given the eastings and northings of all our grid lines and I am wondering if there is a way of entering this information in Revit so, that when I pick a point, it will return the co-ordinates of that point.

Is this achievable? Is Revit that Clever? I do hope so!

All help will be welcomed and appreciated.
