IFC export

You can export 3D model objects to an IFC file in ASCII format (.ifc) or compressed ifcZIP format (.ifcZIP).

Prerequisites

  • Project database contains a suitable IFC export configuration that defines the 3D publishing control to use, the model query to use to select the objects to export, and other export settings, as described in IFC export settings. The publishing control can also contain tags that publish insulation attributes.

Do the following:

  1. On the Model tab, in the Content group, select Export > IFC. The Select IFC export settings dialog opens, listing the IFC exports defined in the project database.

  2. Select the export configuration to use, and click OK.

  3. In the Select Output IFC File dialog, specify the export location, file name, and file type, and then click Save.
