Obtaining technical project documents from an IFC model is a straightforward process if you have the right tools. Find out more by reading this article.<\/p>\n


\nDo you need to create technical documents from an IFC model of a project, but don’t know how to do it? Do you have an IFC model but lack a BIM software to open it?<\/p>\n

Don’t worry; follow my instructions.<\/p>\n

In this article, I will explain how you can extract floor plans, elevations, sections, and more from your IFC model in just a few simple steps, using an online software for creating technical construction drawings<\/a>. This tool allows you to manage your IFC file effectively and obtain all the necessary information wherever you are.<\/p>\n

Let’s get started!<\/p>\n

\"Creating

What is an IFC file?<\/h2>\n

The IFC file is an open file format (not proprietary) used to effectively manage the BIM process and exchange information among various parties (architects, engineers, contractors, etc.) throughout the asset’s lifecycle.
\nHowever, describing the IFC in these terms would oversimplify its usefulness in the BIM process. In fact, in addition to what has been mentioned, it is primarily a data schema organized according to very precise rules, allowing it to be used as a “storage system” that enhances process organization and data exchange.<\/p>\n

Advantages of the IFC file for creating graphic documents<\/h2>\n

We are aware of the numerous advantages of IFC<\/a>, including the ability to produce all project documentation, such as floor plans, elevations, sections, etc., always updated.
\nBy using online applications for creating graphic documents<\/a>, you can have a dynamic view of the mentioned documents, directly linked to the model. This brings huge benefits in using the IFC model throughout the entire lifecycle of the project, allowing you to:<\/p>\n
