The Revit Theory of Relativity:
Understanding Shared Coordinates
TBD 2014
PACIFIC COAST

Will update this page when venue is determined
Objectives
• Survey Point• Project Base Point• Set up Shared Coordinates• Shared Sites and manage Locations• Single building sites• Multiple building sites
AutoCAD Ruined us!
• Does Revit have a 0,0?• YES!• Where is it?• About right there…
Project Base and Survey Points
• Revit projects do not have AN origin… • They have TWO origin points!
Survey Point
• The Survey Point is the coordinates in the World • It is “shared” by all buildings on the site• It defaults to 0,0,0 • You CAN move it!
Project Base Point
• The Project Base Point is the local “Internal” coordinates• It is used ONLY by the building• It should match the building form and layout• You CAN move it!
Internal and Shared Coordinates
Positioning Tools
• Mirror Project• Rotate Project North• Specify Coordinates at a Point• Report Shared Coordinates
Locations and Sites
Single Pair of Files
• Create two files: site and building• Create building geometry with convenient orientation to sheets
• Link building to site• Link center to center• Move and/or Rotate the linked file
• Establish the shared coordinates• Duplicate or Rename the shared Site• Save
• Cross-link• Link by Shared Coordinates
Multiple Files
• Create three or more files: site and building A, Building B, etc• Create building geometry with convenient orientation to sheets
• Link building A to site• Link center to center• Move and/or Rotate the linked file
• Establish the shared coordinates• Duplicate or Rename the shared Site• Save
• Repeat• Create additional shared Sites
• Cross-link• Link by Shared Coordinates
