Auto Section Box, the plugin that improves the coordination of a BIM model

In his interesting blog, ADP Technical Architects, Alejandro Domínguez Panadero explains  
a free plugin that’s very important when coordinating 
a BIM model in Revit.


It’s called  
Auto Section Box , a tool that, as its name suggests, allows you to create a 
section box of selected elements, adjusting it to the desired dimensions.



At ADP Technical Architects, they use this plugin to search for IDs to resolve the 
Clash Detection reports provided by 
Navisworks.  The process involves searching for the problematic ID and, using the Auto-Section Box plugin, obtaining a 3D view to quickly resolve the interference.



Below is a video so you can see how it works in more detail. We hope you get the same performance out of it as they do!
