Dynamo workflow that transfers Revit structural models — including plate girders and compound sections — into Advance Steel for shop drawings.
About the project
Existing Revit-to-Advance-Steel plugins have limitations, especially around non-standard sections. This Dynamo-based workflow handles the full transfer including plate girders, compound sections, and tapered beams.
Client request
A reliable transfer path for Revit structural models — with every plate girder — into Advance Steel for shop drawing production.
4 phases from kickoff to handover.
A Dynamo script writes all section data to a shared database and exports the structural components to Excel.
Load the section database into Advance Steel's library so compound, tapered, and custom profiles are recognized.
A Dynamo script on the Advance Steel side reads the Excel export as the model source.
The equivalent structural model — beams, columns, plate girders, connections — is built in Advance Steel.
Full Revit structural models — beams, columns, plate girders, connections — imported into Advance Steel with shop-drawing-ready fidelity.
Automation Excel-driven Dynamo workflow that generates full conveyor structures — dimensions, profiles, materials — with auto-produced drawing sheets.
