Hi all... I'm looking for some advice on how to setup for a subdivision project with 8 plus single family dwellings. How do others handle their projects as far as linking site data & topography? I am planning on setting up each house in an individual revit file, do I then also create a separate topography file and pull the topo into each house file? Or should I create the topo in each house file so that it will overlap into the next property a little bit, and then pull all of the houses into a common file and line them up there? Any tips/ tricks or advice would be much appreciated.

This is how I would do a project like this and how I would recommend anyone else do a project like similar to this. I would do one topo file of the entire subdivision (break it into parts depending on the size of the subdivision) then create individual projects for the individual houses. Link the individual house projects into the site project. Steve Stafford has a wonderful blog regarding this. It can be found here. HTH, best of luck!

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! |

Thanks for that info. I had posted the same question on AUGI.com and got basically the same answer there, so I had better go with the wisdom of the masses... that blog article articulates the process just wonderfully. Thanks for that sir!
