The building model is created either by importing a suitable IFC model or by manual construction in DDS‑CAD. This chapter describes two strategies for manual construction. The choice of strategy depends on the format of the floor plan provided
In case you have imported the plan in the format DWG, DXF or PDF, you can construct the building model very quickly. You create the required structures by using the imported layout as a template.
In case you have received the plan in no suitable data format for import, you should construct the building model based on a template (e.g. architectural drawing, sketch, measurements, etc.).
You can include multiple rooms independent from their storey or area into a zone.
