Free viewer for industrial Foundation Class models

18 February, 2006

A downloadable free viewer provides access to the world of Industrial Foundation Class models.

IFC (Industrial Foundation Class) models can be viewed using a free downloadable viewer from Data Design System, even without design software that supports IFCs. IFC Viewer is said to be widely used in many countries as the preferred form of data exchange in construction projects. It allows designers to ‘walk’ through’ a project and see every object in a model by controlling transparency. DDS offers IFC-certified solutions for HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems. IFC view is freely downloadable.
