Archibus Smart Client Extension for Revit

Using your Enterprise Graphics from Revit on the Web

Once you publish your models as enterprise graphics using the Publish 2D command, you can complete your room information using Web Central. You can work on data from any level or BIM model, and you can also switch between information from Revit and from AutoCAD at will.

Note : When assets are modeled in BIM, you can also publish them as 3-D enterprise graphics for use with the 3D Navigator . Or, as an alternative to enterprise graphics, users with a license for the BIM Viewer can review, query, and access the asset details directly from the Navigator by using the BIM Viewer task .

To do so:

  1. Sign In.
    Using your Web browser, sign in to Archibus Web Central. (for example, log into the sample HQ project at http://localhost:8080/archibus/ as user AI or AFM).
  2. Edit Information.
    Enter your additional room information using these Web Central views:
  • Space / Space Inventory / Room Inventory / Assign Categories and Types to Rooms
  • Space / Space Inventory / Room Inventory / Assign Room Standards to Rooms
  • Space / Space Inventory / Room Inventory / Assign Divisions and Departments to Rooms

In particular:

  • If a room represents a Vertical Penetration, such as a chase or an area open to below, label that room with a “VERT” Room Category.
  • If a room represents a Service Area, such as a lobby or mechanical closet, label that room with a “SERV” Room Category.
