DWG export/import improvements

In the LIRA-CAD module, the DWG file import tool is greatly improved. The tool now enables you to generate new objects tailored for the LIRA-CAD module and more precisely modify parameters throughout the import process.

Users praised the previously created technology for importing DWG from a single file. To boost efficiency and convenience, this capability has been substantially enhanced in the latest release.

• Multi-layered drawings for a single storey:
  

  In previous versions, all structural elements were located on one drawing, which occasionally led to crowded data. With the updated version, users can organize the structural components by category and produce many drawings for a single storey. For example:

  • Separate drawing for the pile groups and foundation slab.
  • Separate drawing for columns and walls.
  • Separate drawing for beams and slabs.
• Advantages of the new approach:
  

  This way of entering data makes the process more convenient and reduces the chance of errors. It is simpler to locate and modify the elements you require when they are divided by categories.

• Consistency with familiar design practices:
  

  The new approach is closer to the standard technology of working drawings, where similar elements are displayed on separate sheets. This shortens working time, reduces the risk of errors, and makes the data entry process more intuitive without the need for retraining.
