Spaces (created in Revit MEP ) can be bounded by elements in linked models, in the host model, or in both. In Revit MEP , spaces use the computation height that is defined in the architectural model. A space understands in which room of a linked model it resides, and it can report the identity of that room. at 10:38 AM.
