Exporting Zones for Load Analysis
After you have configured spaces with property set values, and have attached
spaces to zones, you can export the engineering and building information in
gbXML format.
1 Open the drawing that contains the zone data you want to
analyze.
NOTE You can analyze a complete building by attaching zones and
spaces in xref drawings to zones in a current drawing. The adjacent
spaces and space surface types are automatically detected for all
spaces at export.
2 Click ➤ Export ➤ gbXML.
3 In the Export to gbXML dialog, specify the export settings:
â–  File name: Specify a file name and location.
â–  Select Objects: The dialog automatically detects all zones in
the current drawing. Zones in reference drawings cannot be
exported unless they are attached to a zone in the current
drawing. If the dialog does not detect all zones, click Select
Objects and select the desired zones.
â–  Building Type: Specify a building type and postal ZIP code
that may be used by the external analysis program.
â–  Progress: Click Start to run the export.
