Показать описание
How to import grid system from Autodesk AutoCAD to Etabs Software.. is shown in this video in detail.

Rules for Architectural plans in ETABS
1) ETABS only process arcs, lines and closed polys from DXF or DWG file.
2) ETABS uses closed polygons to create columns and floors. Only rectangular and circular columns can be converted to ETABS columns
3) For beams and walls, ETABS uses straight lines and arcs.
4) ETABS creates centerlines between two parallel lines or arcs if the centerlines are close to your specified value and their length difference is not more than your specified value.
5) If a wall is defined in DXF/DWG file as a polygon, ETABS will not create a centerline. This means there is no conversion of centerline to wall in this case. It is required to explode polygon into lines and arcs (in DXF/DWG file) to get centerlines in ETABS/SAFE.

Steps to import and trace
1) In order to import your DWG, you will need to use the full version of AutoCAD (not LT).
2) Make sure all elements in the CAD drawing are exploded prior to import; if the program finds Blocks it will return an error. It is also good practice to clean up the file of any unnecessary layers/elements irrelevant to structural plans
3) Elements in layers "0" or "Defpoints" will not be imported
4) The DWG cannot be open in a CAD program.
5) Use File )) Import )) DXF/DWG File of Architectural Plan
6) Choose coordinates, story level in the model to be imported, scale, location and options to elements to be neglected when creating center lines as explained above. Maximum distance between parallel lines is very important specially when creating walls, this value should be set to approximately the maximum wall thickness or beam width in the plan.
