3D Modeling

How to prepare your Design Master Electrical drawings for 3D coordination.

We look at the following topics for 3D modeling:

  • Elevation in Design Master Electrical
  • Modeling panels in 3D
  • Exporting to IFC or DWG for collision detection
  • Moving the 0,0 point using the Offset Alignment Point for 3D Export command
  • Restricting devices from exporting by removing blocks from your customization
  • Setting custom 3D blocks using the Create 3D Block from Entities and <Device Type> Blocks commands
  • Offsetting the 3D block from the 2D block
  • Drafting conduits and cable trays in 3D
  • Additional conduit drafting commands

We also answer the following questions:

  • "How do you define the area being exported to IFC or DWG?"
  • "How do you scale blocks?"
