This is my favorite part.
00:02
Pulling the data into Revit.
00:04
If you haven't already, please refer to the first video in this course, which explains how to grab the Revit add on for Infraworks.
00:10
Once it's installed in Revit, follow these steps.
00:14
First, jump into Revit.
00:17
Under Models, let's go "New".
00:23
In my template file, I'm going head to drop down here.
00:26
And I'm going to grab imperial structural template.
00:28
If you want to grab another template, or you work in metric, that's fine.
00:31
I'm going to grab this one, though.
00:33
I'm going to click "OK".
00:36
Now the first thing I always like to do is just save the thing.
00:39
So, let's click the "Save" button.
00:43
Browse a directory that makes sense to you.
00:47
And we put mine in my Exercise files folder.
00:51
I'm going to call it Park Bridge.
00:54
For my options, I'm just going to keep one backup.
00:58
I'm going to click "OK".
01:01
Click "Save".
01:03
Now, let's go to the Add-ins tab.
01:07
We should have a civil structures panel.
01:10
Notice there's a few things we can do.
01:11
The first thing I'd like to do is go to category mapping.
01:15
It's important we do this before we import any objects.
01:19
I learned this lesson the hard way.
01:22
So, let's just go down through.
01:24
For Deck, we'll keep it at bridge decks.
01:27
For Abutments, I want to change that though to structural framing.
01:32
For Girders, I'm going to change to the structural framing.
01:37
For Bearing, let's go with structural columns.
01:40
For Piers, I'll change that to structural columns.
01:45
Foundations, let's go to structural foundations.
01:50
Generic features, I'm going to switch that the generic models, if it's not already.
01:55
Cross bracing and segment, we can keep those defaults.
01:59
Let's click "OK".
02:04
Okay, now for the big time.
02:06
Let's go to Import civil structures.
02:10
I'm going to browse where I'm keeping my exercise files.
02:13
I'm going to grab my Park Bridge.imx file.
02:19
I'm going to click to "Open".
02:22
It takes a little while.
02:26
It took a little while, but here it is.
02:30
You can go to a 3D view.
02:34
Very cool.
02:36
Okay, save the model and you are all set.
