Exporting IFC's form ArchiCAD to Tekla Structure 13...

[Anonymous]

Is there any step by step workflow for saving IFC's from ArchiCAD 10 so it can be open on Tekla Structures 13?...
I've noticed that the ArchiCAD 10 only supports IFC2x2 while the Tekla 13 supports IFC2x3...i've tried to install the IFC2x3 from the Graphisoft site on my ArchiCAD, but there are some problem arises when i do this...Please help me on how to do the IFC saving from ArchiCAD 10 so i can open it on Tekla Structures 13...

IFC 2x3 is supported in ArchiCAD 11. Not much chance that they will go back and add it to AC10. If Tekla can't read the 2x2 file you will need to use AC11. Perhaps you know someone who has it, otherwise maybe it's time to upgrade.

Thanks for the correction. I didn't realize there was a 2x3 add-on for AC10

I understand that there is also a special Archicad library for this exchange process. Check on the Graphisoft Web site here:
