Worksets
The first step in preparing a project for multiple users is to divide your model into
logical groupings of objects that are set up for single-user access. In Autodesk
Revit this object grouping is achieved with worksets. When setting up the worksets,
you must take into consideration the size of the project, each persons task, and the
size of the team. Workset naming should be related to the function and/or location of
the objects that will be in that grouping, which will allow new team members to easily
adapt to the project.
To enable worksharing, select the Worksets tool located on the Collaborate panel.
When you first activate worksets, a couple of things happen. First, the initial dialog
box is automatically moving levels and grids to a workset and then assigning
everything else to a different workset. Some default workset names are provided in
the dialog box; however, you can change them at this time.

Sponsor Spotlight
When worksets are activated, your Revit file becomes a Central file. A Central file
allows multiple users to create a local copy of the model and synchronize their
changes back to the Central file. When you activate your Worksets for the first time
you are creating a Central file. This means once your worksets are established you
need to close the Central file and open a local copy to begin the project. Figure four
illustrates this action.

Visibility
All views in your Revit Structure model have visibility settings that allow you to
globally turn on and off items that belong to a workset. When worksets are activated
in a model, a workset tab can be found in the visibility settings of a view.
Closing Tip
There will be an occasion when you are in a collaborative environment where a team
member forgets to relinquish a workset he/she had control of. To make it even worse,
this team member may not be in the office and you need to work on some elements
that belong to that workset.
The workaround for this is to change your user name to that of the team member,
then relinquish the workset. Once the worksets are relinquished, synchronize with the
Central file. Finally, change your user name back and continue to work on the file.
The caution I must add is to make sure the user synchronized his/her changes to the
Central fileotherwise, any changes that users made will be lost.
Follow these rules, recommendations, and tips and you will have success
collaborating with your team. Dont be a traitor and break the rules! The team will
suffer the consequences.
