This command outputs a Carlson triangulation surface model
(.tin) to an "open IFC" format (see http://www.buildingsmart.org/standards/ifc)
and subsequently shared with other applications that make use of
IFC-structured files (typically, architectural-oriented products).
When the Carlson triangulation surface uses different colors, the
IFC file is created with separate models for each color which is a
way to create separate models for each different type of surface
area.
Select Triangulation File to Read: Navigate to and select the desired Carlson surface model file and click Open.
IFC File to Write: Navigate to the desired folder location and indicate the desired IFC file name to write and click Save.
