Exporting IFC to Revit - Same elements should be the same family

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,

I’d like to ask if there’s a way to export IFC from ArchiCad so that the same elements (i.e. windows, doors or even walls) are the same families in Revit. With Add-In for Revit we don't get the results that we need. Same Windows are different families in Revit, although not allways. Some are, so there is less windows families than windows instances, but still, there is a lot of same windows, which are different families. Same thing about doors, walls, etc.

Thanks.

Could you show screenshots about this?
So you say that there are 2 instance of the exact same Window element in ARCHICAD, all their data is the same, dimensions, IDs, etc. and they become different Families in Revit?
