While direct import from Rhino into SAP2000 is not available, models may first be imported into Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), or another intermediate format, before being imported from IFC into SAP2000. A list of file formats which are suitable for import into SAP2000 is available through File > Import.

Additionally, model data may be selectively imported per table by using interactive database editing, available through Edit > Interactive Database Editing.
