Fire Alarm Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I am new to revit and still figuring the ins and outs of it. Is it possible to convert or import my block library from Autocad to Revit? Or do i need to create each new family, and is it possible to have all my devices in one family? Thanks, Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzframpton Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Importing anything into Revit is not a viable solution so you'll have to relinquish any such thinking now that you've picked up the Revit platform. As for Families, this depends on the Family itself. What type of device is it will be the first question. Alarm, Panels, etc will be on different Categories, will be in 3D with a symbolic version of it for Plan View. I would suggest opening existing Fire Alarm families and having a tinker with them first. Small edits to exiting Families will ensure they're working properly. I would also suggest looking into some basic training if your company can find the budget. -TZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
