Export structural analysis data to IFC

[bernd]

Tandy:

would be cool if you could test strctural analysis ifc import in FreeCAD! so far it has only been tested with AxisVM and Etab software. But there are dozens of analysis software out there able to write structural analysis view.

I had also tested same softwares in freeCAD .
I am researching from last 4 months but not able to find more software which can export structural analysis to IFC .
I had worked with many softwares of Bentley, AutoDesk, Trimble
Please guide Sir me if you know any such software which can export structural analysis data to IFC so that i can read and understand them to use in freeCAD and will work on that software too.

import of gemetric structural analysis member is supported. You need to activate it in preferences.

Export has been on my TODO for years. At least the Arch Structural Axis objects. Would be a good GSoC project. Are you interested?

BTW. Tekla and Allplan are CAD with structural analysis support.

I somehow missed this topic ...

Sir i am interested in doing this export work and at present working on it .
We are interested in Doing it as GSoC project .

As said:

CAD software exporting strutural analysis view:
- Nemtschek Allplan
- Tekla Structures

Analysis Software exporting structural analysis view:
- RFEM
- AxisVM
- ETAB
- InfoCAD
- SCIA
- Sofistik

There might be even more CAD or Analysis software around ...

As said would be cool if you could test the import of Structural Analysis IFC in FreeCAD. Apart from me it was only tested shortly by ebrahim (https://connect.allplan.com/de/forum/th ... tPage%5D=2)

Any hint to where? With the preferences in my installation being a mixture of Dutch and English I am not able to locate the function I should activate.

Thx. I'll hopefully be able to report back about my experiences with results from Sofistik shortly.
