CSI XRevit 2025

Features of CSI XRevit 2025:

• Bi-directional Data Transfer: Facilitates seamless, intelligent, and bi-directional data exchange between Autodesk Revit and CSi products (ETABS, SAP2000, CSiBridge).
• Model Synchronization: Allows for synchronized updates between the Revit architectural/structural model and the CSi analysis model, reducing redundant work.
• Geometry and Section Mapping: Intelligently maps Revit family types to CSi structural sections and vice-versa, ensuring accurate representation.
• Load Transfer: Transfers gravity and lateral loads defined in Revit to the CSi analysis model (depending on Revit's analytical model capabilities).
• Analysis Model Generation: Helps generate a clean, analytical model in CSi software directly from the Revit physical model.
• Design Information Exchange: Transfers design results (e.g., rebar areas, steel member sizes) from CSi software back to Revit for documentation and detailing.
• Version Compatibility: Specifically designed to be compatible with Autodesk Revit 2025, ensuring current software interoperability.
• Change Management: Tools to identify and manage changes between the Revit and CSi models, allowing users to accept or reject updates.
• Material Mapping: Maps material properties between Revit and CSi software.
• Workflow Optimization: Streamlines the collaborative workflow between structural engineers and architects/draftspersmen.
• Error Checking: Assists in identifying potential inconsistencies during data transfer.
• User-Friendly Interface: Provides an intuitive interface within Revit to manage the export and import processes.

System Requirements (Estimated for CSI XRevit 2025):

• Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11 (64-bit recommended), Windows 10 (64-bit recommended).
• Processor: Intel i7/i9 or AMD equivalent (recommended: multi-core processor, 2.5 GHz or faster). Performance will be heavily influenced by the speed of Revit and the CSi software.
• RAM: 16 GB minimum (recommended: 32 GB or more, as both Revit and CSi software are RAM-intensive, especially with large models).
• Disk Space: 5 GB or more of available disk space for installation and temporary files (in addition to Revit and CSi software requirements). Recommended: NVMe SSD.
• Display: 1920 x 1080 resolution (recommended: 4K display).
• Graphics Card: Dedicated graphics card with 4 GB VRAM (recommended: 8 GB VRAM or more, DirectX 12 compatible), as required by Autodesk Revit.
• Internet Connection: Required for license activation and updates.
• Compatible Software:
  • Licensed installation of Autodesk Revit 2025 (64-bit).
  • Licensed installation of a compatible CSi product (ETABS, SAP2000, CSiBridge) - typically the latest or recent versions that XRevit supports.

CSI XRevit is essentially a bridge between two powerful and resource-intensive software packages (Revit and CSi products). Therefore, the system requirements for XRevit itself are largely dictated by the higher requirements of these host applications. Robust hardware is crucial for smooth performance when synchronizing large and complex BIM and analysis models.
