About this app

As the world of architecture and design continues to embrace digital technology in order to streamline workflows and improve efficiency, the need for powerful and versatile software tools becomes increasingly important. One such tool that has caught our attention is the ATHENA Exchange for Autodesk® Revit®. This plugin offers a solution to a common challenge faced by architects and planners when working with Revit models.

The Problem

When architects create Revit models, window, door, or facade elements are often represented as "dummy" families. These placeholders lack the necessary detailed outlines and parameters required for further elaboration by planners. The process of exporting these dummy families, modifying them in a different environment, and then re-importing them into the Revit model can be time-consuming and cumbersome.

The Solution

ATHENA Exchange for Revit aims to simplify this process by providing an automated way to save Revit families, along with their parameters, as ATHENA ATH drawings. By using this plugin, architects and planners can export the dummy families and process them in the ATHENA environment, where they can be easily modified with appropriate profile outlines and additional profile information.

Once the elements have been elaborated in ATHENA, they can be seamlessly imported back into the Revit model. What sets ATHENA Exchange apart is its ability to automatically update the dummy families with the correct profile outlines. This ensures that any changes made in ATHENA are reflected accurately in the Revit model, without the need for manual adjustments.

Benefits and Features

One of the standout features of ATHENA Exchange for Revit is its ability to save time and effort for architects and planners. By automating the process of exporting, modifying, and importing families, this plugin significantly speeds up the workflow, allowing professionals to focus on more critical tasks.

The seamless integration between Revit and ATHENA makes it easy to collaborate between different stakeholders involved in a project. Architects can provide planners with detailed outlines and parameters, enabling them to work on the elements without any ambiguity. The ability to add additional profile information further enhances communication and ensures a smooth transition from design to implementation.

Another noteworthy aspect of ATHENA Exchange is its compatibility with the latest versions of Revit. Users of Revit 2020 and higher can export families in ATH format, while ATHENA 2021 is required for modifying them. This compatibility ensures that users can take full advantage of the plugin's capabilities without being limited by software versions.
