How to Import OBJ Objects to Archicad

Sep 27, 2024

If you're working on 3D modeling and design projects, you may find yourself needing to import OBJ objects to Archicad. OBJ (or .obj) is a common file format used for 3D graphics and is supported by various 3D modeling software, including Archicad. Here's how you can easily import OBJ objects to Archicad for your design needs.

Step 1: Prepare Your OBJ File

Before importing an OBJ object to Archicad, make sure that your OBJ file is properly prepared. This includes ensuring that the file is in the correct scale and that any additional textures or material files are properly organized and located in the same directory as the OBJ file.

Step 2: Open Archicad and Set Up the 3D View

Next, open Archicad and navigate to the 3D view where you want to import the OBJ object. Make sure your 3D view is set up and ready for the object to be placed within the scene.

Step 3: Go to File > Libraries and Objects > External Content

In Archicad, go to the 'File' menu and navigate to 'Libraries and Objects'. From the dropdown menu, select 'External Content' to bring up the External Content palette.

Step 4: Select the OBJ File to Import

Within the External Content palette, click on the 'Add' button to browse for the OBJ file that you want to import. Once you've located the file, select it and click 'Open' to import the OBJ object into your Archicad project.

Step 5: Place and Adjust the OBJ Object in the 3D View

After importing the OBJ object, you will be able to place it within the 3D view of your Archicad project. Use the available tools to position, rotate, and scale the object as needed to fit within your design.

Step 6: Finalize and Integrate the OBJ Object

Once the OBJ object is positioned to your satisfaction, you can finalize its integration into your Archicad project. This may involve adjusting its material properties, adding any necessary annotations, and integrating it with the rest of your design.

By following these simple steps, you can easily import OBJ objects to Archicad for your 3D modeling and design projects. Whether you're working on architectural visualization, interior design, or any other 3D modeling project, the ability to import OBJ objects expands the range of design assets at your disposal within Archicad.
