SAP2000 objects and DWG entities
SAP2000 supports the export of DWG objects, as described in the following table below:
| SAP2000 Object object | DWG Entity entity |
|---|---|---|
1 | Point | AcadPoint |
2 | Line | AcadLine |
3 | NLink (2 or 3 Pointspoints) | AcadLine |
4 | NLink (1 Pointpoint) | AcadPoint |
5 | Area | Acad3DFace |
6 | Solid | AcadPolyFaceMesh |

NOTE: If |
...
AutoCAD is not installed, a warning message |
...
will occur when exporting a DWG file. SAP2000 uses ActiveX late binding |
...
to create AutoCAD objects. |
...
AutoCAD must be installed to complete this process. DXF import and export, however, does not require AutoCAD |
...
installation. |
