AEC-objects and MV-blocks (AutoCAD)
A CAD drawing may contain AEC-objects (Architecture, Engineering or Construction) such as doors, walls and windows.
It may also include MV-blocks (multi-view blocks), which are architectural objects that can have different representations in different view directions. Please note that the MV-blocks' main purpose is to carry visual information (views).
It is possible to import AEC objects (-doors, -walls, -windows) and MV-blocks as constructional information via CAD Import. To do so, they must be placed in a drawing layer that is identified as a constructional layer. In addition, a field mapping can be established between the AEC space object and Planon to import the properties of the space.
 | Since AEC-objects and MV-Blocks are complex, importing them as constructional information may negatively affect the performance of CAD Integrator. It is recommended to only import AEC-doors, -walls, -windows and MV-blocks that are absolutely required. |
