IFC Export from Revit for MEP

Aaron Bourgoin

Has anyone got settings / suggestions for using the Revit Connection plug-in to export IFCs from Revit that translate Revit MEP objects (families) to native Archicad MEP objects. In our tests so far, even the piping comes in as non-native objects.

For the plugin to work correctly, the modeler must know how to assign the right classifications to the right occurrences. Then when importing into Archicad it is necessary to have the MEP module or the latest version 24. The import translator of the IFC file will also be determined so that the file exported from Revit is correctly interpreted. I do not know what this plugin means into Revit.
For my part, I prefer to modify all IFC translators in order to master the consequences.
