- [Instructor] In this video and demonstrate linking Revit to Revit. So there are a few scenarios where you would want to link one Revit project to another. The most common would be when you're coordinating with another discipline. So if I'm the architect and I have an architectural model maybe I want to do a link to bring in the structural information or bring in the mechanical or electrical information. So in those scenarios, each of the disciplines would work in their own file. And then we would use links to be able to coordinate between them. The other really common scenario is the one that I'm going to demonstrate here. And that's what happens when you have more than one building on the same site, like a campus situation. So let's say that I have this office building here but there's a small outbuilding that I want to add into the project. And I don't want to work on that directly in the same project file. So…
