Rhinoceros Import/Export Add-ons

Important Notes:

Rhino 6 format is not supported in the built in Rhinoceros Import/Export function in Archicad 22.

From Archicad 20 on these Add-Ons are part of the Archicad package. In Archicad 19 and 18 install these free Add-ons to enable Archicad to import and export models using Rhino's native (.3dm) file format.

Import Rhino Model to Archicad

Rhino Importer Add-on enables Archicad users on both the Mac and Windows platforms to pass on the model or part of the model produced in Rhino to Archicad. This Add-on, available for Archicad 18 and 19, enables you to open or merge native Rhino (*.3dm) files directly in Archicad.

Export Archicad Model to Rhino

Rhino Exporter Add-on enables Archicad users on both the Mac and Windows platforms to pass on the model or part of the model produced in ARHICAD to Rhino. This Add-on, available for Archicad 18 and 19, enables you to save the Archicad 3D model as a Rhino file (*.3DM).

Rhinoceros – GDL Converter

Install these free plug-ins to convert Rhino models to native Archicad GDL elements – standalone objects (.gsm) or library containers (.lcf).

Please watch this video to find out more about how to install the necessary plug-ins, and how to import a model created in Rhinoceros into Archicad as native GSM objects. The video first presents the 'Single Object Import' workflow using.gsm files and then the 'Complex Structure Import' using .lcf files.

Steps to import Rhinoceros models to Archicad

Download and install plug-in for Rhino

Download and launch this 'GSM-LCF exporter for Rhino 5' Rhino plug-in to be able to save/export Rhino models.

GSM-LCF exporter for Rhino 5

Choose import method

Depending on the size of the Rhino model, choose one of these two import methods:

Single Object Import to Archicad

Use this workflow to import small-sized single objects or groups of small objects saved in GSM format to Archicad.

Save Rhino model as GSM file

In Rhino, select the model or its parts you want to export and save them as GSM Object File using the 'GSM-LCF Exporter for Rhino 5' plug-in. Go to File/Save or File/Export Selected and in the upcoming dialog choose the 'Archicad GDL Object' file type (extension .gsm).

Place the object in Archicad

In Archicad, add the object to the Embedded Library, then place it into the Archicad project as an Object.

Complex Structure Import into Archicad

Use this workflow for larger and complex Rhino models to convert them into a set of (smaller) GDL objects. This process enables the user to retain separate logical parts within the same model while providing a functionality to monitor and easily update the imported Rhino models in Archicad. The LCF option is also advised to enable Archicad's performance optimization algorithm to work seamlessly on an imported large Rhino model.

Save Rhino model as LCF file

In Rhino, select the object(s) you want to export as a reference model to Archicad. Photos app for mac free download. Go to File/Save or File/Export Selected and save them as LCF Container File using the 'GSM-LCF Exporter for Rhino 5' plug-in. In the upcoming dialog choose the 'Archicad GDL Object Library' file type (extension .lcf).

Download and install the 'Rhino LCF Observer' Add-On for Archicad

Place LCF model in Archicad

Archicad 20 Mac Os High Sierra

In Archicad, add the LCF file as a Linked Library in Library Manager, then place it into the Archicad project as an Object. Using the 'Rhino LCF Observer' Add-On you can place all objects from the LCF files, and/or to update any placed instances as needed.
