Automatic entry
The "Automatic entry" module can be used to automatically generate part of the model geometry in CYPECAD, IFC Builder, CYPE Architecture and CYPETHERM using information extracted from files in various formats (such as DXF or DWG).
AUT module in CYPECAD
The "Automatic entry" module allows users to access the "Automatic entry DXF/DWG" or “Automatic IFC Import” options when creating a new project in CYPECAD.
Thanks to these options, users can import a DXF or DWG file, or an IFC file, and extract this data to automatically generate part of the geometry of the CYPECAD model:
- DXF or DWG files: floor plans, columns and beams for the outer and inner perimeters of the floor slabs are generated.
- IFC files: floor plans, loads on each floor, columns, floor slabs and structural elements can be generated.
From this point onwards, using the other relevant modules, CYPECAD can complete or refine the structural model using its own tools, in order to ultimately carry out the analysis, verification and/or design.
Detailed information on CYPECAD’s automatic generation features can be found at this link.
AUT module in CYPE Architecture
The “Automatic entry” module allows users to access the “Automatic entry DXF/DWG” option when creating a new project in CYPE Architecture.
Thanks to this option, users can import a DXF or DWG file and extract this data to automatically generate the geometry of walls and partitions, floor slabs, doors and windows. CYPE Architecture can then complete or adjust the building's geometric model within the program's interface.
Detailed information on this CYPE Architecture feature can be found at this link.
AUT module in IFC Builder
The “Automatic entry” module allows users to access the “Automatic entry DXF/DWG” option, available when creating a new project in IFC Builder or, within an existing project, via the “Import CAD/BIM” option in the “Project” section of the top toolbar (this process replaces any geometry previously entered in this tab).
Thanks to this option, users can import a DXF or DWG file and extract this data to automatically generate the geometry of walls and partitions, floor slabs, doors and windows. IFC Builder then allows you to complete or adjust the building's geometric model within the program's interface itself.
Detailed information on this IFC Builder feature can be found at this link.
AUT module in CYPETHERM
The “Automatic entry” module allows users to access the "Automatic entry DXF/DWG" option, which can be accessed via the "Import CAD/BIM" option in the "Project" section of the top toolbar on the "3D Model" tab, which is available if a BIM model has not been imported during the project creation process via a link to a BIMserver.center project (this process replaces the geometry previously entered in this tab).
Thanks to this option, users can import a DXF or DWG file and extract this data to automatically generate the geometry of walls and partitions, floor slabs, doors and windows. CYPETHERM can then complete or adjust the building’s geometric model within the program's interface. Subsequently, depending on the type of project selected and provided the relevant modules are available, it is possible to carry out energy simulation, thermal load analysis and/or the analysis of improvement measures using the program's other tools.

AUT module in CYPEFIRE FDS
The “Automatic entry” module allows you to use the "Automatic entry DXF/DWG" option, which can be accessed via the "Import CAD/BIM" option in the "Project" section of the top toolbar on the "3D Model" tab (this process replaces the geometry previously entered in this tab).
Thanks to this option, it is possible to import a DXF or DWG file and extract this data to automatically generate the geometry of walls and partitions, floor slabs, doors and windows. CYPEFIRE FDS can then complete or adjust the building’s geometric model within the program’s interface. Subsequently, if the relevant module is available, it is possible to carry out a dynamic fire simulation using the program's other tools.
