You just linked a developed Revit model into a new project file and you cant seem to find it. If I just imported a project and I cant seem to locate the imported model the first thing I do is setup my radar. Go to a floor plan view and add four new elevations looking in all directions.

Using Revits 2D Drafting tools: Because beginners are not completely familiar with all of Revits tools and because they are often faced with a deadline, beginners will likely rely on detail lines and filled regions to piece together plans, sections, and elevations for their first few projects.

build your as-built model in the existing phase. Once an as-built model is done you might want to archive a copy of the model just incase the design scope changes and you have to start all over again with a clean as-built. The model builder is going to have to do partial demolition of walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, etc.

This wall is the sum of two 9 tall extruded shapes in plan view. We used to complain that CAD drawings looked horrible and now that concept has nearly been forgotten. Plus in-place families detract from performance of the team, model and file. What you get out of your model depends on what you put into it. David Duarte.
