Shared Coordinates Process: Verify Shared Coordinates Positioning
Modified on: Wed, Sep 16 2015 4:40 PMShared Coordinates Process: Verify Shared Coordinates Positioning
Steps:
STEP 1: Open the building models. Open the floor plan view to verify the PBP and survey point are not on top of each other.
STEP 2: Change the orientation parameter to True North. Revit defaults to Project North in plan views. Verify that the PBP and survey points change their orientation if survey file’s North orientation is not also Project North.
Project North
True North
STEP 3: Open elevation view. Verify true elevations.
STEP 4: Verify shared coordinates locations in Revit site file and in civil survey file in AutoCAD.
Manage<Coordinates<Report Shared Coordinates
Click on several reference points, such as survey point in Revit, to verify its shared coordinates against those in the civil survey file shown within AutoCAD.
