IFC VIEWER

View your 3D model in the browser, without extra software

Open any IFC model straight in the portal. Rotate and zoom in 3D, view the properties per element, measure, make a section and show only what you need. Client, contractor and drafter see the same model, with no separate viewer software.

3D IN THE BROWSER

Rotate and zoom through the entire model

The IFC viewer runs entirely in the browser and loads your model directly from the portal, even when the model is large. No install, no separate licence, just open and look. With the cube or a fixed view you jump straight to top, front or side.

  • Rotate, pan and zoom, with top, bottom, front, back, side and isometric views
  • Works on the computer, on site in the browser and in the app
  • Transparency, X-ray view, edges and shadows on or off
  • Download the original IFC or open an older version

STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES

See per element what it is and where it sits

The tree follows the model itself: project, building, storeys and the elements per type. Click an element and you see its data and all properties from the model. You copy them with one click.

  • Tree per storey, with elements grouped by IFC type
  • Search by name, type, tag, GlobalId or property, and filter by IFC type
  • All properties and quantities per element, including those of the element type
  • Hide or isolate elements, or make everything visible again

MEASURING AND SECTIONS

Check the model before production starts

Measure distances with snapping to corners and edges, make a section and show only the foundation, the walls or the roof per phase. That way you catch mistakes while changes are still cheap.

  • Measure distance, also only horizontal or vertical, in mm or m
  • A section along X, Y or Z, moved with a slider
  • Phases on or off: foundation, walls, floors, roofs, frames, structure, finishing and stairs
  • The model belongs to the same project as your drawings and documents, with the same versions

Frequently asked questions about the IFC viewer

No. The IFC viewer runs in the browser. Anyone with access to the project opens the 3D model straight in the portal, without installing anything or a separate licence.
You view IFC models in 3D in the IFC viewer. DWG drawings open in the DWG viewer and PDF files in the PDF viewer. Everything belongs to the same project, with the same version control.
The IFC viewer is included in every plan and shows the whole model. With the Production add-on you import the model per element, with its own 3D view per element, zones, position numbers, beam and plate lists and production drawings.
Yes. The viewer is self-hosted and loads the model from your own portal environment, so your models do not go to an external service.
Yes. The IFC viewer is part of drawing management and is available in every plan, from Starter to Enterprise.
