Data exchange between structural analysis software and structural modeling using BIM tools has been a key problem in terms of the application of BIM technology in structural design. This paper discusses the current state-of-the-art of the advantages and disadvantages on data exchange issues from the aspects of IFC standard, Revit API Platform and Excel data format, and then the theoretical analysis is conducted after the test. The test results show that IFC standard is only suitable for the information exchange of structural physical model, and the sequential structural analysis and reinforcement entity configuration receives very huge restriction; the information exchange interface based on Revit API is feasible in structural analysis and design, however, there are many problems such as the instability of the interface to be solved and the method based on excel file format is stable during the data exchange process, however, it depends on whether the software can export and import excel file. Finally, different data exchange strategies should be adopted according to the type of the structural system and the complexity of the model.
