Cleaning Context Geometry Before Revit Import
Strip and heal messy context geometry before it ever reaches Revit.
- In Rhino:
- Explode complex blocks.
- Delete curves/surfaces not needed.
- Keep only clean solids.
- Export as .SAT (preferred) or .DWG.
- Insert into Revit via Insert > Import CAD / Import SAT.
- If the file imports empty:
- Check for extremely large coordinate values.
- Move geometry to origin (0,0,0) before exporting.
