Hi,

I am new to Revit and I am trying to bring in a 3D CAD ground model of a site, but when I try to link it into Revit or Import it I get a message saying "Revit cannot import because it will create a Revit model that is larger than 2 miles. Either select a different import units setting or adjust the project size".

The file size is only 90KB, and I have checked there are no layers in CAD which have been turned off that might be large. I have also tried selected the unit size when importing and I keep getting the same message.
