Read

Model Elements and Families

Access a model’s walls, roofs, floors, families of doors, windows, columns, and more.

Parametric Relationships

Access the way elements relate to one another to retain the internal workings of how the whole model is connected together.

Materials

Access the fill patterns and materials used in views and rendering.

Geometric, View
and Annotation text elements

Work with the full set of geometric elements such as:

  • Curves
    • Families
    • Family Symbols
    • Family Instances
    • Wall
    • Roof
    • Floor
    • Ceiling
  • Topography

Supported File Versions

BimRv SDK can read Autodesk® Revit® files of version 2011 and higher.

Write

Full Save

Save Revit® files that are 100% compatible with Autodesk® Revit® software, ensuring seamless interoperability between applications.

Incremental Save

Optionally save only additions and changes made to a model while still retaining the whole file, making the file save process faster and more efficient when working with large files.

Supported File Versions

BimRv SDK offers write support to the latest version of RFA/RVT only.
