Export 3D model to STRUMIS (BIMreview) using the new link

We are currently preparing more concrete information on the subject together with AceCAD people.

The basic idea is to export a GTC file from Advance Steel 2013. Then, the new “BIM Review” product from AceCAD is now able to read this GTC file and to prepare it for StruMIS.

Again, we will soon come back with more information (~2nd half of March).

Best regards / Manuel LIEDOT (GRAITEC Chief Product Officer)

Dear all,

Please find below some more information concerning the link Advance Steel => BIMReview => StruM.I.S

Technical remarks:

- it requires using Advance Steel 2013 + SP1 (or later)

- the default "Export ACIS bodies to GTCX" must be set to "1" (instead of "0") in the GRAITEC Advance Manager 2013

- it requires using BIMReview V7 (will be released by AceCAD in April 2013) (or later)

The workflow is the following:

- in Advance Steel, go to BIM Center > Graitec BIM > GRAITEC BIM export, and select "*.gtcx" in the combo-box, then save the GTCX file

- in BIMReview, Open > Model and then select the "*.gtcx" file in the combo-box

- in StruM.I.S, import the "*.bswx" file previously saved in BIMReview

Best regards

Philippe
