NOTE: Exporting from SAP2000 to import a new model into Revit Structure and exporting from Revit Structure to import a new model into SAP2000 are both possible. At this time, the option to update an existing model in one product with changes made to the model in the other product is not supported for SAP2000 like it is for ETABS.
