Export drawings to Autocad
This has already been stated, but to see an advance steel model in plain autocad, you just need to install the advance steel object enabler on that PC unit. It must be for the same version as advance steel.
the graitec power pack for advance steel also has several opitions to export the model to solids.

Just use google search for “advance steel object enabler 2018”
To check if it is install, goto “add remove programs” , in control centre , or in Win 10, settings, apps, then look for programs and features. It will populate a list of all programs installed, you will see it listed there , along with other Autodesk products.

if you have Advance Steel installed, the object enabler should be automatic included. So if you start AutoCAD you should have the possibility to open AS details and models (but only from AS2018)

If this information was helpful, please use the Accept as Solution function, this make it easier for other users
But in this case the users are not advance steel users, if they only have autocad, then it is required to download the object enabler to install on the pc that only has plain autocad.
This way the other users within an organisation that do it use advance steel can then see the created models and drawings , without any need to explode the files.
If you where sending the files to third party then yes , still use the explode opitions, but then you lose the link to the model, as it is just dumb autocad.
