Extended Question:I have imported an ETABS model into SAFE, but now I have updated loading within the ETABS model, and I would like to import only these loads into the SAFE model without overwriting any other information (object properties, load combinations, etc.). How is this done?
Answer:Two options are available forimportingonly a specific set of information into an existingSAFEmodel, including:
Option 1.
1.Import the updatedETABS*.f2k floor as a new SAFE model.
2.Within the initial SAFE model, through File > Import > F2k, select the *.$sf file of this newly created SAFE model.
3.Select Import as a New Model or Add to Existing Model, then specify which objects, loads, etc. will be replaced or kept in the event that they occur in the same location.
Option 2.
1.Import the updated ETABS *.f2k floor as a new SAFE model.
2.Select Edit > Iterative Database Editing to copy the updated tables into the initial SAFE model
