Converting as-built data to demolition data

When converting as-built data to demolition data, you should match the parameters of a suitable demolition element from the wizard and use these parameters for Conversion for Building Alteration Work. If you do not work with wizards, you can also use the default setting of Conversion for Building Alteration Work, which you can restore by clicking Reset.

Important steps

• You have already converted the relevant elements of the layout to as-built data using the Conversion for Building Alteration Work tool.
• If you work with the Allplan IBD 2018 Data for Building Alteration package, use Copy, Move Elements between Documents to copy the as-built data to the drawing files in the Building model, as-built structural node.

1. Make the drawing file with the as-built data current.

   Note: If you want to assign a different building alteration category to a section of a wall only, you need to split up the wall first.
