IFC Beam Properties

[Anonymous]

Hey Everyone,
I*m currently working with the Ifc manager and translator and i have a problem.
i'm trying to asign to "ifcbeam" the property of profile rotation and it's not working.
In the translator i can asign the angle within the plane but not the rotation around the profile.
is there any way to get a value bc it only shows "0,00"

thanks in advance
patrick

Yes, ArchiCAD gives to use only slant rotation - as in IFC mapping dialog as in properties expression.

The only solution to that - to use GDL steel beams from the library instead. In that case you can map any GDL parameter to IFC parameter.
