Exporting Revit
Structure Files
Your Autodesk Revit Structure 2009 project can be exported into several different AutoCAD formats. In this tutorial, you
learn how to export your project into both 2D and 3D formats for improved coordination with architects and engineers.
You can export a 2D view (plan, elevation, section, etc.), sheet, or schedule into AutoCAD, or you can export a 3D view
directly into AutoCAD Architecture. You can also export the project drawing sheets and import them as 2D images.
Exporting CAD Formats
In this lesson, you begin by exporting a 3D view of the structural model as a DWG format and importing
the file into AutoCAD Architecture 2007. Revit Structure, maintains the properties of all structural elements
as true AutoCAD Architecture objects. You then select a 2D structural plan view and export the file as a
DWG format, which is imported into AutoCAD 2007. Finally, you export sheets from the project and import
them into AutoCAD 2007 or AutoCAD Architecture 2007 as 2D images.
