Revit :: Modify Topo And Building In Same File?
Jul 13, 2012I'm using Revit 2012.
know of a way to modify both Contour Lines (Topo) and the actual building in the same file?
i.e. without linking the file "topo" to the file "building"?
Revit :: Zero Z-elevation In Topo Surface
Oct 7, 2013I received from our client a dwg file. i follow the steps in creating a topo surface file from a dwg within revit. However, revt include also the zero Z-elevation points within the file. And so it igave me a very weird result of the toposurface.
Know any good procedure in preparing a dwg file before importing/linking to revit or rather excluding all zero Z-elevation points.
Revit :: Topo Surface Not Working
Oct 24, 2013For some reason I cannot generate a topo surface using the attached autocad file.
The levels are on a layer called LEVELS. The points next to the levels are on layer "0".
Some of the levels are negative ... ie: below sea level.
No topo surface gets generated and no error message appears.
Revit :: Cut / Fill Not Calculating Relative To Topo
Feb 19, 2014When I select all of my building pads and topo and move them vertically up or down by the SAME amount, the cut and fill volumes change. Apparently the cut/fill is being calculated relative to something that is NOT THE GRADED SURFACE. Maybe the Level line? I don't know. The volumes shouldn't change at all when I move both the topo and pads together! How can I trust these numbers?

Nov 16, 2011I am trying to create a mass surface that is being cut by a topo plane. What I am trying to achieve or show is a height setback set from the existing topo to a height of 35'. I've tried to cutting or joining the two geometries but this will not work. There is no way to snap t the intersection of were the mass and the Topo surface meet. Is there a way to change a Topo surface into a mass? Any other way to achive this instead of massing and topo surfaces?

Feb 12, 2014I downloaded an ACS point file for LiDAR data. I was able to successfully connect it to Autocad Map 3D, and generate a surface.This is the ACS file: URL....
However when I tried to import it in Revit via Massing&Site->Topo-> Import Point File, after converting it to CSV in Microsoft Excel I get the message "No points were found in the file."
Also, the ASC file fails to import in Autodesk Recap.This is the converted CVS file: URL....I suspect that the problem might be in the ASC to CVS conversion. Any settings on doing the conversion differently?
Revit :: Importing Room Data With Linked File
Dec 13, 2013I linked a revit file of some renovations that had been done into an older revit file. This worked fine accept it did not transfer the room data over. When i try to put new rooms in they take the volume of the older rooms not the renovation imports. Why? Why? and why?
Even if I draw out the rooms when i place the room they are still separated and defined by the older room dimensions. Thats not cool that is sad?

Feb 27, 2013Sitka 1/3 arc-second DEM is the page for the source of the .asc file.
I downloaded the rather large (190 mb) zipped file of a large ASCII file with a few extra things (readme, metadata, report)
I followed this how-to document.
And I get the error message "Cannot set the column 'Name'. The value violates the MaxLength limit of this column." And then nothing at all happens. No data imported.
Also, if I can't find the coordinates they assigned to the Ascii and I choose one I always use for this area, could that be the problem?
And I'l attach a photo of the 'preview' screen before I get before the error message.

We have a topo survey for the whole site, so we have and EG surface.

Whe he tries to do it, a red "X" appears telling him there is some kind of error. VERY strange and I have no clue why????

Jul 13, 2012I am building a new template for our office and just finished building my Description Key Code Set, and Figure Prefix Database. I stopped to do a quick trial run on one of our surveying files, but when I imported the file all of the figure lines imported correctly but the points all came in the default point style and label style. I went to the Settings Tab/Points/Commands and made sure my "Disable Description Keys" was set to False. This is not my first template and I have never had this issue before.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Overwriting Points Importing Fieldbook
Jan 4, 2013We're moving [slowly, painfully] from LDD to Civil 2012. When importing a survey fieldbook in LDD, my method has always been to "clean up" the fieldbook during the import. Rather than search through the fieldbook text file manually, I'll let the import process find the duplicate, overwritten points, or errant linecodes, and then exclamate them or change them in the fieldbook and, if necessary, reimport the fieldbook. Figures and breaklines use the initial coordinate, for instance, so sometimes a reimport is (was) necessary.
So our survey crews "overwrite" points in the field for bad rod heights, angles, descriptions, etc... During the LDD import process that point number is flagged and I am given the option to overwrite/average/etc.... In Civil 3D I seem to be stuck with an average of the two observations, and I'm not even alerted about which point numbers come from these "multiple observations." So I've no idea without sifting through the often substantial list of point numbers which points have duplicate data connected to them.
I've combed through the import options and I just don't see what I'm looking for, which, in a phrase, is to be alerted when there are duplicate numbers in the fieldbook.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Choose Projection On Importing Points
Aug 9, 2012I have a .dwg file with an AT-LCC projection assigned to it. There are some .shp files connected to it.
Can I choose the projection of to-be-imported-points when I import some laserscan-files in ASCII format? So I can tell AutoCAD: these points are in MGI-AT.AUT-Central/GK projection, please convert them to my desired projection.
There is a method which takes much too long:
open a new document assign the origin-projection (here; MGI-AT.AUT-Central/GK) to the fileimport the pointsexport the points as .shp file, define a projection-system conversion to target projection (here: AT-LCC)open the file with the target projection assigned to it (here: AT-LCC)import the .shp file
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Blocks Don't Show When Importing Points?
Jul 11, 2013Our Surveyor created the Point Styles and description keys for processing our field work. These were incorporated in our template. Yesterday he brought in field work an noticed that only a few of the symbols incorporated into the markers came in.
The blocks exist in the drawing but when you go to edit the point marker only 8 out of 152 blocks show in the window below "Use AutoCAD BLOCK symbol for marker". I tried a backup of that template from 5 months ago and got the same results. I've verified that the blocks still exist in the drawing both by listing them and exploring them in Design Center. If I try other templates the window shows all the blocks.
I have tried Audit and Recover with no improvement. Thirteen errors fixed but the blocks still don't show. Additionally I found a backup of the template from Feb., 2013 and get the same problem but the lack of blocks only just occurred.
This is an example showing the depleted block list:

Nov 3, 2012I want to know why I can't change coordinate of points while importing points from Points menu?
I created new file, assigned any coordinate system to the model. Opened Import points windows there, created new file format which there I assigned Coordinate zone transform to the coordinate system of the text file and imported my text file. But the coordinates of points didn't changed or transformed. When I do it by Survey in Toolspace its works good. I want to know whether I did any wrong or it is problem of software.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Points Disappear After Importing Field Books
Feb 7, 2013I’ve run into an issue with importing survey data using field books.
I started by importing my primary control using a field book. There were no issues with importing these points. I then proceeded to import subsequent field books with additional control and then topographic mapping. In the last field book some points were accidentally overwritten due to an error in the field collection. No error message was given to let me know the survey points were in use and being overwritten. Luckily I caught the error before I proceeded to the next field book.
I tried to reimport the field book that originally created the points that were overwritten. At that point C3D told me that the points being occupied in the field book did not exist. I checked the point list for the primary control field book under the "Import Events" in the Survey Tab of the Toolspace and indeed the points in question were no longer listed.
I then proceeded to reimport all the field books in order, starting with the primary control. I got through several of field books before C3D again told me the point being occupied did not exist. This despite the fact that this same point was occupied in previous field books. After trying once again I was able to get through the field books.
