Hey all,

I have an 2D Autocad file which shows the plan of a site and it has countour lines. Is there any way I could place this file in revit and then give elevations to the lines?

 

Thanks

Lovi

There are lots of threads about this same question, if you look at the bottom of this page you will see some of them, if you search in Forums you will find much more.

Directly from HELP menu:

Creating a Toposurface from Imported 3D Data

You can automatically generate a toposurface based on 3D contour data imported in DWG, DXF, or DGN formats. Revit Architecture analyzes the 3D contour data and places a series of elevation points along the contour lines.

  1. Open a 3D view of the site plan.
  2. Select the imported 3D contour data in the drawing area.

    The Add Points from Selected Layers dialog displays.

  3. Select the layers to which you want to apply elevation points, and click OK.

I Hope and I Wish to LEARN  more, and more, and more.... REVIT
