CSIxRevit2008 update is now available

CSI has just released an updated CSIxRevit2008 Link.

Below is a list of the implemented enhancements and resolved incidents/bugs that are included in the new CSIxRevit2008 that is compatible with ETABS 9.1.7 and Revit Structure 2008 SP3. Both ETABS 9.1.7 and CSIxRevit2008 were released on Monday 12/17/2007. It can be downloaded here: http://www.csiberkeley.com/Revit/

Enhancements:

·       The speed has been substantially improved for updating large models from ETABS to Revit Structure 2008.   

·       For models imported from Revit Structure 2008, ETABS no longer assigns an auto-select frame section list to members that have only a single frame section property assigned to them in Revit.

·       A new CSIxRevit has been released that is compatible with ETABS v9.1.7.       

Incidents/Bugs resolved:

·       Camber data for composite beams was not correctly being exported to Revit Structure 2008. This has been resolved.      

·       A runtime error sometimes occurred when importing elevator shafts from Revit Structure 2008. This has been resolved.   

·       Wall openings with less than two points were not being imported from Revit Structure 2008. This has been resolved.    

·       The units-conversions for Young’s modulus and shear modulus of floor and wall materials, as well as for the thermal expansion coefficient for all materials, were not always handled correctly.
