How to export the gbXML file (with spaces) from the Opendbuilding designer's 3D model in order to import it in "IES VE"? Below video link for "Revit to IESVE". Please advise the same procedure in Opendbuilding designer or AECOsim V8i. www.youtube.com…
Currently using the Bantley Hevacomp V8i SS1 SP5 (V*i SS1 CP2 (12/15)) version of hevacomp and have created a model within System builder.
External consultants want to carry on further works but are working within TAS.
Is there any function for…
Hi David,
This is not on the current roadmap for AECOsim. From a quick search, acoustic analysis applications generally work with DWG/DXF or various kinds of mesh model. We Save As DWG and can export to several other formats so should be able to generate…

gbXML (Green Building XML) is a very useful format for transferring building models across a number of platforms. Bentley Hevacomp's Design Database contains a gbXML import that allows you to take advantage of this facility, but you should be aware there…
Hi, Stephen, thanks for the answer. I am looking for a bidirectional way between ABD and AES, in which I could define in ADB some spaces and envelopes with material properties applied, pass them to AES, check them there and change them as needed, and…
Is there a way to export a model from AECOsim Energy Smulator to get it back to Building Designer? I mean exporting it as a gbXML, Dgn or any other format, but keeping all the objects (rooms, envelope walls, surface components, roofs...) and all the data…
Mudit,
You'll need to post this query on the following forum where there are more knowledgeable people on building performance.

Pradyna,
Under the 'File Information' where should that be pointing? Currently it is pointed to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bentley\MicroStation\WorkSpace\projects\examples\000 SSA ArchProjectTemplateNcsUS\out\Empty-GBXML…
Are you using, USNcs and Unicode [metric] dataset. Spaces types? In BA are mapped to that of gbXML space type for user conveniences, this file which you are talking about is space mapping file.

We are just starting to get into exporting our Bentley Architecture models in GBxml to look at them in TAS.
Having a problem with the export process.
Seems to go through all the steps fine but when it comes entering the ZIP / PIN Code it…
I have a consultant that has requested a gbXML file and can not get the export gbXML to work. For a simple example I put down four exterior walls, selected Export and I get to the gbXML, but the 'Export" button is greyed and does not allow me to chose…
