Level of Detail is how much detail is included, or to be included, in the model element, an “input” Level of Development is the degree to which the element’s geometry can be relied upon by users… an “output” First its important do know that there are varying Level of Development definitions.

Spaces (created in Revit MEP ) can be bounded by elements in linked models, in the host model, or in both. In Revit MEP , spaces use the computation height that is defined in the architectural model. A space understands in which room of a linked model it resides, and it can report the identity of that room. at 10:38 AM.
