Importing Building Components

Manufactured building components that are formatted as Autodesk Exchange (ADSK) files provide design and connection data that you can use to accurately place the component in a Revit project. These building components can be designed in mechanical applications, such as Autodesk® Inventor®, and used in Revit.

To open a building component ADSK file, do one of the following:

• Click Open(Building Component).
• On the ribbon, click (Place a Component).
