i was expecting 2d drawing and any suggestions on how to fix this?

Nothing to “fix” really… the file is a 3D file, so it imports as 3D surfaces.

If you want it 2D it should be properly fixed in the application it was created in.

You could insert it into LayOut and then export it as a 2D file.

One of them inserted into LayOut:

Exported from LO as a flat .dwg and imported into SketchUp.

this is exactly what i am looking for so i can create a 3d model. I have little to no experience in layout. i tried in insert into layout with no luck i will try utube

I imported the DWG-s, exported as a 2D Image to DWG and re-imported.
