Convert IFC to DWG: Everything You Need to Know

IFC to DWG: Resources

Below, you'll discover a compendium of resources dedicated to the interoperability and exchange of IFC and DWG file formats. These will aid in the smooth conversion from IFC to DWG files.


IFC File IFC

The IFC (Industrial Foundation Classes) file extension is commonly used in AEC (Architecture Engineering Construction) software, including applications like Revit from Autodesk or SmartPlant 3D by Intergraph. The IFC file format can store a wide range of information, including model geometry, measurement units, reusable geometry component instances, material colors with alpha values, assembly structure with component names, and generic BIM (Building Information Modeling) data. With our software, Autoconverter and Automesher Application, you can open and save IFC geometries with custom properties and convert them to various other 3D file formats.


DWG Drawing DWG

The DWG (AutoCAD Drawing) binary file format, developed by Autodesk for AutoCAD, is also supported by other software packages such as ZWCAD, BricsCAD, and IntelliCAD. As a result, DWG files have become the industry standard in CAD. Our add-ons, Automesher Application and Automapki Application, for your DWG editor, enable you to effortlessly convert DWG drawing entities into various 3D and GIS file formats. This facilitates seamless sharing of your AutoCAD designs across different platforms and applications.
