This is far easier if your civil or survey person has set a coordinate zone to the file. After that its just brining in the file center to center unless you want to line it up to the building footprint. Even then its pretty simple
Hi Thanks for all the videos and sharing the knowledge with us. Can you please help me to give me a idea what practice should i use when i need to develop multiple revit models of a single site plan. I am thinking to fix center point of each building as their PBP and linking them by shared coordinates. Is this practice professionally good? will it not affect any other MEP contractor while developing their revit models, coordination and finding clashes?
The problem with this solution is that, when you use IFC, you can't import by project base point, you can only import by survey point, and where is the survey point? At 0,0,0, and when you import, the IFC will be at the 0,0,0. Completly off the model. Project base point It's just to mark the building point not the real geographical coordinates of the site of the project.
@JoaoPaulo-cr4th Right! So which workflow do you follow when you have to link an IFC file in order to acquire the shared coordinates? I'm genuinely interested in the topic...🤔
