Export your long section to a 3D IFC model (BIM, Revit)

Turn a longitudinal profile into a georeferenced 3D model in IFC — ready to load in Revit (“Link IFC”) or any BIM tool. At the end we open the file in Autodesk Viewer.

Step by step

  1. 1Open a finished network long section.
  2. 2Click “Export” and open the “3D / BIM” tab.
  3. 3“IFC (Revit / BIM)” is already ticked.
  4. 4Pick a coordinate system (e.g. ETRS89/UTM) — it’s the georeference; the app recalculates nothing.
  5. 5Click “Export 3D” — the IFC file is saved to disk.
  6. 6Open the IFC in Revit (“Link IFC”) or any BIM tool, e.g. Autodesk Viewer.
