How to read the published Elementplan (viewer)

The viewer is the published plan for the project team. Requirements browsing is open. Downloads and checks may need an email code

View example

The viewer is the frontend for published project releases. Drafts never appear here. Requirements browsing is open. Downloads and model checks may require an email login code.

Open a project

  1. Go to your organization’s Elementplan viewer.
  2. Open Projects / Projekte and select the project.

You will see the project version and the template version it was based on. Both are frozen releases: the template you copied from, then this project after you published it.

Requirements

Open Requirements / Elementplan. Models (Teilmodelle) are in the left navigator. Click a model, then an element.

Filter by:

  • Use case (workflow)
  • Phase
  • IFC version (4.3 / 4.0 / 2x3)
  • IFC entity
  • Search
Viewer showing an element with its IFC hierarchy, modelling rules, attributes, and property sets with units and allowed values.

Downloads

Open Downloads. Typical files:

  • IDS - ZIP for Solibri, BIMcollab, or similar
  • Contract Excel - tabular requirements
  • Use case and modelling PDF reports
Downloads page of the viewer with cards for contract Excel, IDS files, modelling rules, and use case reports.

If the project is not public, enter your email, then the 6-digit code.

Next

To change the plan, use Edit / Bearbeiten (editor). To check an IFC, use Actions / Aktionen - see Check models with Actions.
