Titleblocks & Sheets

Using an Arch Revit file:
  1. From the arch revit file, open a sheet view, right click the titleblock, select "open for editing", then save that rfa file to the project directory.
  2. From the structural project, create a new sheet, and "Load" the rfa titleblock.
  3. Using NCS standards, I create S101- Foundation Plan, S102 - Roof Framing Plan, and S301 - Foundation Sections.

Using an Arch AutoCAD file:
  1. Save the architectural titleblock to its own dwg file.
  2. From the Revit project file, choose File -> New -> Titleblock
  3. Choose a sheet size from the Titleblock directory.
  4. Choose Insert -> Import Cad and browse to the autocad file
  5. Change parameters as necessary before hitting "Open"
  6. Add Labels to the titleblock.
  7. Save the titleblock as an rfa file to the project directory or arch directory for future use
  8. Import in to the project
