You can view the job information in IFC models using Trimble Connect.

You can interact with the model in the following ways:

• by sharing the production status of items to Trimble Connect
• by color-coding items in the IFC model
• by selecting the same items in the IFC model and in estimating and production control jobs

We recommend that you start the estimating job by importing an IFC file from Tekla Structures.

The file includes GUIDs, unique identifiers that match the identifiers in the IFC model. You can download the necessary settings for Tekla Structures plug-in from Tekla Warehouse.

Before you can view the job information in Trimble Connect, your Tekla PowerFab administrator needs to set up the Trimble Connect integration settings. For more information, see Link Tekla PowerFab to Trimble Connect
