I have noticed that when I get architectural models with excessive grouping that they bog down my MEP models. I try to keep the my linked architectural model as clean as possible and one thing that seem to help is breaking up groups. Open the architectural model and expand groups in the project browser.

Check out page 20 for how you can assign MEP scheduled parameters to items placed in the architectural model. We have already been asked by one of our consultants to use their MEP content in our Architectural model. To try and manage the large number of parameter names I am toying with adding prefix or suffixes. CAD Shack VIPs.

In the past I have used linked architectural views in Revit MEP to show room names, numbers and door tags. Currently the room tags are reading information from the room object in the linked architectural model and I link that view. The space object in the MEP model linkst to the room object in the architectural model.

It aids in spooling a model into its component parts for fabrication, tracking shop processes for assembly, and field processes for installation. Automated Cutting Tools .

I often redefine some architectural families to be 2D in my model to keep the model size down and lessen interference issues. He told me that if you place all the families you need in a single project and group them, you cam insert that group into the architectural file and ungroup it there, bringing all the families in at once.

BIM is a set of processes that manages certain technologies. And it will eventually be superseded by a new acronym for a different approach, just as BIM superseded CAD.
