Hi all,

I'm redrawing a current house plan on Revit Architecture 2009, but I have encountered some problems with my property line. My problem is that the bearings and distances I have been given seem to disagree with Revit. When I try to make the property line using the distance and bearings table on the larger bearings it says that the bearing has to be between 0* and 90*. So my question is how do I draw this property line to scale.

The Bearings and distances which I have are: (* = degrees)

33.054m 0* 55' 50"

24.000m 76* 09' 00"

37.373m 183* 40' 05"

21.500m 266* 00' 20"

I'm also not sure on the direction of the lines but when closed they form a rectangle. I hope this makes sense, but if it doesn't i'll try my best to describe it better to you and attach a scan of the original plan when I have the right equipment. 

Thanks, Jake

First of all go to Site settings and change the 'Angle Display' under 'Property Data' to 'Degrees'.

Then enter the values you have in the Table.
