Delete any unwanted raster images or renderings. Try to optimize the image before importing as the file size will remain the same, even if you scale it down within Revit. RASTER IMAGESĪvoid bring in large raster images. If they aren’t needed anymore, delete them! 13.
#Revit model update#
Inactive design options can slow down your model as they all have to update with any changes. This reduces the amount of visible elements that Revit has to process. When navigating within a 3d View, use a section box to zero in on the area you’re working. Create and apply View Templates to make your life easier. This reduces the time Revit takes to process your view. When working with views, turn off the catagories/subcatagories that you don’t need to show in that particular view. If it’s not absolutely necessary, use 2D detail components instead. will increase your file size and slow down your session. Modelling bolts, connections and rebar etc. Reduce the use of 3D detailing when its not required.

This reduces the processing time when Revit generates the view. Reduce the clip line to show only the necessary extents for that view. Make sure the Far clip option is active in all section & elevation views.
#Revit model windows#
Use the ‘Close Hidden Windows’ command to close the open windows that you are not using. When Revit regenerates the model, it does so in every currently opened views. To help speed up your session, It’s a good idea to close any worksets that you are not currently working in. When working in your Revit project, most of the time you will be focused on just one area at a time. Tip: It’s always better to resolve Warnings as they arise, rather than trying to tidy them up at the end. Resolving these warnings can help speed up your session. Revit can spend a lot of resources trying to computate errors and give Warnings. Having too many views can slow down your project, so make sure you delete all temporary or unnecessary views. Try to keep your project as lean as possible. To do this, do a Save As and in the options, tick the box to C ompress the file. COMPRESS YOUR FILEĮnsure your Revit file is being compressed when saving. Linking is similar to an Xref in Autocad, your just creating a link to an external file. When you import them, the file size gets added on to your project size. When working with Cad files in Revit, you should always LINK them into your project instead of importing them. These can really add up to increase your file size, so if you don’t need them, delete them! You can always bring them back if you need to later on. Sweep the broom through your project and get rid of all unused families, groups, materials etc. 15 best practices for improving revit performance 1. Below is a list of things to look out for should your session become slow, and some general ‘best practice’ tips to reduce your file size and speed up your Revit session. This post has been put together to help you improve the performance of your Revit project. Navigating the model can become sluggish, loading and saving can take forever and modifying an element can drain your time. Slow drivers, slow internet, and especially slow Revit sessions! Revit performance issues can become a major problem when working on larger projects. You can maintain a local origin-origin coordinate system on the XYZ axis in your building model which is much easier for interop with Rhino, Grasshopper, Dynamo and other plugins as you’ve mentioned.There’s nothing worse than dealing with painfully slow things.

Saves you a heap of graphical overriding, duplicating 2D elements and playing with view ranges in your building model.ģ. Setting up clean ‘Linked Views’ of isolated information such as set-outs, survey boundaries, rail aliments or annotated graphical site plans that can be consistently displayed (By Linked View) into multiple building model plan views at any level as background info. The ability to relocate the building’s position in relation to the site/boundary without moving actual geometry.Ģ. There are heaps of great benefits to running a site file:ġ. Great article, thanks for the thorough explanation and comforting to see as we employ more or less this as the preferred method on all of our projects. I’ve witness many heated disputes between BIM Managers about this.
