Use cases · DWG to IFC and Revit
From 2D DWG to a 3D IFC model, with a birth certificate on every element.
AI reads the structural set; repeatable arithmetic from the reading you confirmed places every element. The result is an IFC model of the structure, foundations to roof - columns, beams, slabs, walls, footings, steel members - where each element says which sheet, which schedule row and which rule produced it.
Who it is for
- BIM teams who inherit 2D sets and need a model to coordinate against
- Structural engineers checking a set for clashes and gaps
- Contractors planning formwork and pours from the model
The steps
- 01
Read the set
Sheet roles, layer meanings, levels, grids, schedules and cross-sections are read, checked against the drawing and shown to you to confirm before a single element exists.
Ask in your own words, or type /ingest
- 02
Build the model
The elements are placed on the building's own grid and levels, the IFC is checked, and a viewer opens in your browser.
Ask in your own words, or type /3d
- 03
Graded by ten checks
In the same step, ten checks look at supports, overlaps, extents, rebar and more; every failure becomes a decision or a query, never hidden.
What you get
- IFC4 model with typed, quantified elements
- A 3D viewer with the evidence on each element
- The decision sheet: what each check found and what was decided
The proof
- Geometry placed by a model
- never
- Elements with evidence
- all of them
- Export
- IFC, viewer
Every figure names its scope; none is a promise for every drawing set.
Questions
- Is this a DWG to Revit converter?
- No. It reads the structural set and builds a model of what is drawn, with evidence on every element; it does not convert CAD entities one for one. Revit opens the result through IFC.
- Does it work with architectural sets?
- The structural set is where it is strongest today. Architectural walls and openings are read and flagged; full architectural modelling is on the roadmap.
- Can I open it in Revit?
- Yes, through IFC. A direct Revit add-in is planned.
- What if the drawings disagree?
- Conflicts are questions, never averages: both values are recorded, the conservative reading applied and flagged, and a query drafted.
