Unfortunately, I hope that will be done in the future. But final step should be integration to Revit, and this is not as it should be - import detailed model as it is in Advance Steel! After detail calculation and code checking we can export the model in Advance steel and make detailing. So, first model in Revit, then export to Advance Steel and Robot. Just a note, detail model in AS with all connections (including the custom) are well integrating to Robot Structural analysis. Ok, custom connections and their integration from Advance Steel are not available in Revit. The common profiles should be covered by the provided database.īeside that, every time you create a new rule, manually, it is saved and automatically used next time.Ĭould you please discuss more some of them. This depends pretty much on your projects. How to harmonized thy Advance Steel and Revit libraries to escape profile recognition?

Only the 130 steel connections that are available in Revit 2018, through Steel Connections addin, are transferred from Advance Steel as connections.Ĥ. How to manage to import also detailed connections defined in Advance Steel ? The smlx format is design to be used to transfer information between Revit and Advance Steel projects.ģ. What is the best way to import model in Revit (.smlx or CIS/2 file, I don't see and understand the difference ?) and you said you have some custom connections in Advance Steel model. From my experience, I know that those 130 are not always enough. Steel Connections in Revit 2018 addin has 130 detailed steel connections. The intended workflow si to start build the model in Revit. I prefer start from Revit, but is that the best workflow? Is it better start to build a model in Revit and then have integrations to AS or vice versa.
