Creating DWF from Infraworks

Infraworks does not have a simple export to DWF. I came across this workflow because at the last minute some needed a model in a file format that was small and simple to use. A presentation with a 3d model  of the proposed building works vs 50 slides, I know which one I rather see. 

The short video below is a work flow that I've used to export Infraworks to DWF, with the help of 3ds MAX.

Key workflow points
  • Exporting is done by sending the model to 3ds MAX by the send to 3ds function. (3ds need to be installed on the PC for the function to be available)
  • 3ds MAX now has the selected region of the model and exporting dwf is as simple as export to dwf.
