BIM Q&A: How to Resolve Data Truncation Issues When Importing CAD Grids into Revit 2014

BIM Q&A | How to Handle Data Truncation When Importing CAD Grids in Revit 2014?

This issue usually occurs because the imported CAD file has an excessively large range.

Revit imposes limitations on the size of imported CAD files. Exceeding these limits will trigger an error message.

Common causes for this problem include:

1. Importing the DWG file without any preparation.

For example, failing to clean the file, remove unnecessary frames, or explode blocks.

Recommended steps to resolve this issue:

1. Remove any framing elements.

2. Explode all blocks to simplify the drawing.

3. Use the PU command to purge redundant data and isolated points.

4. Copy only the necessary graphic elements into a new DWG file.
