Wall Floor Interaction and Linked Models. When we have architecture and structure in separate Revit models we end up with somewhat clumsy graphics in wall sections. This is more pronounced if the structural slab is in the structure model only. The issue is the same when interior walls are linked into a shell model.

For teams to extract value from data, they must first make sense of the information they have—which is where data visualization comes in. Construction projects involve massive amounts of information and documents, including BIM models, schedules, budgets, and performance reports. Unfortunately, around 95% of that information goes unused.
