Export a model to Autodesk Revit

To export a model to Autodesk® Revit®, see the following instructions.

  1. Create the model as usual.
  2. On the BIM Integration tab, click Autodesk Revit Export.

    The BIM Integration wizard opens.

  3. Adjust the location and rotation of the model, and click Next.
  4. Select the items that are included in the model, and click Next.
  5. Specify the export names of material grades, and click Next.
  6. Specify the file name and location.
  7. Select whether the file is exported for the first time, or whether you want to update an existing model.
  8. Click Finish.
Note: Prior to running the export you can control which levels will be included by setting Include in export as required in the Level Properties. This allows individual levels to be:
  • only included if the level is a floor
  • always included
  • never included
Note: To open the exported file in Revit, you will need to have installed the Tekla Structural Designer Integrator for Autodesk Revit. This is available from the Tekla Structural Designer > Integrator for Autodesk Revit download page.
