Phase Mapping Linked Revit Models

When you link a Revit model that has more than one phase into a project, phases in the host model
automatically map to phases in the linked model. When this initial mapping occurs, Revit Architecture maps
phases by matching phase names.
You can manually set up a correspondence between phases in the host model and phases in the linked
model. To do this you set up a phase map in the properties of the linked model, and then apply the phase
map in the host model.
NOTE Phase maps must occur in chronological order. For example, a phase map cannot be set up like the following
table. Since phase 1 occurs before phase 3, phase 3 cannot be mapped to phase 1.
Phase
Phase 1
Phase 2
Phase 3
Phase mapping is always maintained, unless phases in either the host or linked models are combined. If
phases are combined, the existing phase map of the remaining phase is used.
For information on phase maps and rooms in linked models, see
on page 936.

To map phases in the linked model:
1 In the drawing area, select the linked Revit model.
2 Click
3 In the Element Properties dialog, click Edit/New.
4 Find the Phase Mapping parameter and click Edit.
5 In the Phases dialog, select the appropriate mapping options for each phase, and click OK.
6 Click OK twice to exit the Element Properties dialog.
To apply phase mapping in the host model:
1 Click View menu

Attachment makes the linked model visible when its host is linked into another model.
Overlay does not load the linked model when its host is linked into another model. This is
the default setting. When the Overlay option is selected and you import a model that contains
nested links, a message displays indicating that the imported model contains nested links
and that they will not be visible in the host model.
