Importing 3D Data
Now that we have discussed using 2D reference data, we will cover how to use 3D model data within your Revit project. There are many valid reasons for modeling outside of Revit, including software expertise, availability of content or generation, and optimization of complex geometry. The following sections will explore some situations in which model data can be shared between programs, including
- Imported data as a mass
- Imported data as a face
