***Note from Migration:***

Original Title was: Add support for the familiy category Structural Connections in the Revit reader.


When constructing in Autodesk Revit the familiy category Structural Connections is widely used for any kind of bolts. The geometry and parameters of these bolts are often exported to a land surveyer so they can stakeout the positions.

Right now FME cannot read the familiy category Structural Connections. FME doesn't even post an error message, it just skips the objects.

This idea is for adding support of reading these objects.

The workaround right now is to change the family category to something else that FME supports but this is certainly not bulletproof and requires manual work inside Revit.
