Export to a New Revit Project ( Modeling )

Tool summary :

• Exports all beams, columns, braces and joists in your current Job to a Revit Structure project that has never before imported from SDS2.
• If you are having problems synchronizing your SDS2 model with the Revit model and the original Revit project has been corrupted, this may be your best option.
• It lets you export your entire SDS2 model to a Revit Structure project in which no "roundtripping" has yet been done.
• Assuming that you have previously been exporting and/or importing XML files to/from a particular Revit project, this "reset" tool breaks the tie to that Revit project, which means that you will no longer be able to export XML files to that Revit project.
• The XML file which this tool creates will need to be imported to a Revit project which has never before imported from the SDS2 program.
• To import from Autodesk Revit Structure, or export to Revit Structure, the Revit user needs to purchase a plug-in for their program. Information is available at https://sds2connect.com/ .
• To invoke Export to New Revit Project :
