Simplifying the Model
To create an efficient
ADSK file
export only the relevant parts of the model (such as exterior walls and doors) and hide the rest. Do this by
applying the Export to Civil Engineering view template to the 3D view, as follows:
1 Set the Function parameter to Interior for non-essential walls, doors, stairs, floor, ramps, and
curtain walls.
NOTE The Function parameter must be set to interior for the Export to Civil Engineering view template
to work correctly.
2 In the 3D view, click View tab
template to current view.
3 In the Apply View Template dialog, select Export to Civil Engineering from the Names list.
NOTE If Export to Civil Engineering is not in the list, you need to update your project to the new
template by transferring project standards. See
4 In the Apply View Template dialog, apply addition visibility and graphic overrides by clicking
