BILT ANZ 2022, Gold Coast | Demystifying Datums And Scope Boxes Within RevitRichard Taylor, Ideate SoftwarePre-Design, DesignBILTArchitecture, Data Management, Model Management, Project ManagementAutodesk
Synopsis:
Grids, Levels, and Reference planes are the backbone of a good Building Information Model.
As designers, we use a whole series of annotative elements that help us understand and navigate through a complex web of 2D and 3D element connections. Datums such as grid lines and reference planes can seriously impact Revit geometry and Revit views and are often driven by Scope Boxes and other non-intuitive elements.
