You perform a static analysis and compare the results between the assembly with all solid bodies and the assembly with mixed bodies. Convert your images and other CAD files into this format. They are widely used but mostly associated with the AutoCAD program. This lesson shows you two ways to convert a thin solid body, the seat of a chair assembly, into a body that meshes with shells:Ī) by converting the solid body into a sheet metal andī) by offsetting faces to create a surface body. DWG Drop Files here Choose File Start Add example file Optional Settings Change Version: Start DWG Converter DWG are files that store 2D and 3D images. The following Revit help topics have information on these options: Exporting to CAD Formats DWG, DXF, DGN, ACIS (SAT) Export a Model to IFC. But if you have ServicePack 5 of 2015 then you should be able to at least open a 2016 model in 2015.will be limited in what you can do with it but you can at least view the file.dont remember if it lets you save out as a step file. When many thin solid parts are present in an assembly, you can save analysis time by converting them into sheet metal or surface bodies without compromising the accuracy of results. Solution: Export the Revit file to ACIS (.SAT) or IFC format for use in Solidworks.
