Checks#

The following values are used during Check. They allow to decide which checks should be carried out and for which values to report issues:

Name	Description	Unit ¹
Coordination Checks
Perform checks for	Scope of Coordination Checks to perform. Associtation check is the base criteria and therefore always enabled.	Enum
Analytical Quality Checks
Connection Tolerance	If the distance between two elements is smaller than this value, they are treated as connected and no issue is reported. ²	Length
Edge Proximity Tolerance	If the distance between to element edges is greater than this value, they are far enough apart and no issue is reported. ²	Length

¹	Units according to Revit settings, to check or change go to Manage > Settings > Project Units where you can also add a unit symbol for easier readability.
²	To learn more, see Connectivity.

Analytical Quality Checks#

Connectivity#

Determination of the proper connectivity of adjacent analytical elements for a clean analytical model is handled through a parameter set. Ideally, the distance between two analytical elements, e.g., their nodes or edges, lies outside of their range. The figure below shows a typical situation of this check.

$0 < \Delta < CT:$	No issue is reported.
$CT \le \Delta \le EPT:$	Possible issue is reported.
$EPT < \Delta:$	No issue is reported.

with:

$\Delta$	Distance of analytical elements, e.g., between nodes or edges.
$CT$	Connection Tolerance. Note Ideally align this value with the intersection tolerance of your mesher for good results.
$EPT$	Edge Proximity Tolerance Note Ideally align this value with the element size of your mesher for good results.
