Translating standard details from AutoCAD to Revit: Now, you can import DWGs into Revit and not do anything else to them. You can also scan details and import them as images but we completely translated our details from PowerCADD to AutoCAD to Revit by way of DWG files so we could improve on their graphic quality once they were imported.

The office eventually moved on to PCs and we used AutoCAD for a short time. In one year Ive learned what I had to to develop working drawings, weve managed to build up some Revit content, weve organized our templates, and we are successfully developing our details and other drafting standards transfered from PowerCADD to AutoCAD to Revit.

The various assessor engineers typically work with flat (2D) PDF or AutoCAD files, and consider individual sheets, marking them up or adding comments. On the first look, the interface of the Digital Platform presented here is pretty similar to any CAD (or BIM) interface. The process is linear and mostly broken over disciplines.

As a consulting engineers and a Revit MEP users, there are some things we have to live with. I most likely have quite a bit more information in a Revit family than I would ever have in an AutoCAD block. I am interested in what others think about this situation.
