Revit Survey and Project Base Points

Now that I explained the four different project file points in a Revit project file, let's dive into what is happening when you move these points.

This first video covers moving the Survey Point.

What happens when moving a Survey Point and its effect on whether its clipped or unclipped.

The effects of moving the Project Base Point whether it's clipped or unclipped.

Finally, let's confirm the location of the Shared Coordinate System. 

The effects of moving the Project Base Point whether it's clipped or unclipped.

I plan on building off of these videos to get into more depth with modeling and linking Revit files, and what the role these points have.  Let me know in the comments if there are any related topics you would like me to present in future posts, or if you have any questions related to these videos.
