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

such as grids, dimensions, texts
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.
