Or better yet you want to manipulate the out of the box families to fit your needs? Well in this course, Revit MEP Essentials: Family Creation Workflows, you’ll learn how to create native Revit families using the MEP connectors. First, you’ll take that 2D AutoCAD drawing and convert that to a Revit family. Next, you’ll take the Inventor file through the BIM exchange so you can use those files and save them as a RFA file.
