What’s the difference between this two options complex and building parts except the file size? Importing the “building element parts-IFC” the whole geometry is imported the missing objects are Inplace-families but also walls that are Revit-walls in the other IFC-file. Spaces are ignored or their borders completely different and are very strange compared to the IFC-File. If you have extrude / revolved with junctions all elements that has junction will be imported as inplace-famlies and they are useless for calculation and analysis.īut there seems to be a difference between complex profile and “building element parts” as well, because when we import the complex-profile-IFC a lot of elements are missing like the structure work. We now found an export-setting that nearly works but there are some problems and questions.įirst it only works with extruded / revolved and without junctions. We received two IFC-Files, the only difference was that in the first one the geometry was exported as “complex profile” and in the second as “building element parts”. Project-changes and other things have been slowing down the process – the usual problems :-). PS: We are working with the German Revit and sorry for my English. Has overwriting in import option any effect?Īny tips for better importing an IFC are highly appreciated But it always comes in as an In-Place-Family and with the elements set to frame construction. I have overwrote in the import options under the “IFC-Curtain-Wall” parameter to match with the respective Revit-Category of curtain wall. They are not recognized as a wall or curtain wall element. Is this a problem because of wrong export-settings?īut the biggest problem we do have with Curtain Walls, they always are imported as an In-Place-Family and Revit and the programs we are testing for heat and cooling calculation have issues with them.
What does short segment mean and how can we avoid it? matching with Revit walls and doors but I do get a lot of error messages like “the element has a short segment that can’t be fixed” (paraphrased translation from German) or “overlapping elements” like walls where the architect said that there is just one wall. Importing the second one most of the walls and doors etc. I found out that all elements with Brep are imported as In-Place-Families and all the parameter are lost so this export option is out of question. We use Revit MEP and working with and architect who uses Archicad and for the import we use the improved import-tool from Graphisoft.įor testing, we got two different IFC-Files in one all the elements have the “Brep” setting and in the other “Extruded/revolved”.
