Hello everyone,
At first I would like to ensure you that I did some research and I am not just asking and not trying to figure this out by myself, but I am trully desperate now.
I am currently trying to export a .stl file from my .dwg. The object in this file is a 3D model of a floor of a building. I created this 3D object from a 2D .dwg file and added some basic things (e.g. doors, windows, floor and ceiling).
In CAD everything seems OK for me. The problem occures when i try to export this object to .stl file. I always get an error message saying something like this: "The Boolean operation on solid and/or surface bodies failed." or "Coincident face_face_ints with different body vertices." or "Inconsistent containment of intersection curve."
I found out, that these errors are caused by very small vedges or ledges between two surfaces. I guess that this is possibly my problem, but I have no idea how to deal with it. Some advices say, that i should use "AMSTITCH" or "UNION" to these surfaces and somehow put them together.
I also found out that the problem is between the walls and the ceiling and floor.
I acctualy have absolutely no experience with AutoCAD and this is my first and definitely last project. I would really appreciate your help and any kind of suggestions.
The file is attached, so you can see it.

Thanks Patchy. I didn't know there is such a tool as Meshmixer. I was finally able to see exactly where the issues are. I knew there has to be something wrong with it, but i couldnt find the exact spot.
Thank you again.
