IFC export without structural layers of composite walls
Hi,
is there a way to export wall composite structures without any structural layer?
I am looking for such a feature for a client specific need: he wants to gather Structural IFC data from structural engineer and other data from the architect
It is very simple to do it the opposite way with wall structural layers without other and finishes layer. But when only other and finishes layers are needed it looks to be impossible.
The only work around I know involves checking and unchecking 'participates in collision detection' for the building materials that are used in the walls you wish to export as separate parts.
Basically you need to make a few separate IFC exports and combine them.
This is quite elaborate, but the alternative of modelling things as separate elements is even more work.
Interesting, I was looking at this process (using "participates in collision"), but was hoping there may be an easier way...
Good to try, thank you for sharing
