Using IFC Files
IFC is a file format that is intended to describe building and construction industry data. You can do the following with IFC files:
- Attach them as references
- Place them as cells
- Open them in read-only mode
- Open and save them as DGN files
OpenUtilities Substation
also supports some of the updates of IFC 4 Addendum 2. These include:
- Addition of an indexed-based definition for BREP (facet tessellation)
- Addition of two more base surfaces for the use in Advanced BREP: toroidal and spherical surfaces
- Addition of an index-based definition for colors
- Expansion of the indexed colors to at least include opacity values in addition to RGB
IFC files open as read-only. You can import IFC files as DGN files.
