standard details
« on: Aug 01, 2023, 15:54:48 PM »
We are working to bring all our standard details into Revit, they currently reside in AutoCAD.  Trying to have everything reside in one platform.
Anyone know of a site that may have these already drawn up?
Specifically looking Wisconsin master spec section 23(HVAC) details.

I had found that too.  Was hoping to eliminate the step of importing into Revit and fixing anything that doesn't convert correctly.

Its not too hard, once you have all of your details imported in, you can pick a line and select all within project than change the line type to your Revit lines. Same with the text etc.
I keep our standards out of the template and use the "insert from file" command on the Insert tab. This allows you to select the details required for your project or you could just go ahead and have everything pre-setup depending on your own practices.
I gave all of our to the apprentice and checked the work afterwards. Once its done its done.
