The 2013.m version of CYPE programs incorporates the generic export to IFC4 format (Industry Foundation Classes) in CYPECAD and CYPECAD MEP. This way, CYPE programs have become the first engineering and construction software to export to IFC format with the specifications of the new definitive version: IFC4 (previously known as IFC 2x4).
CYPECAD and CYPECAD MEP currently allow for the export to IFC in the following formats:
- IFC2x3
- IFC4
- IFC2x3 for Revit 2012
- IFC2x3 for Revit 2013
- IFC2x3 for Archicad
- IFC2x3 for Allplan
As Revit, Archicad and Allplan gradually incorporate reading of the IFC4 format in their software, CYPECAD and CYPECAD MEP will incorporate specific exports to these programs in IFC4 format.
