IFC geometry exchange with structural engineer

Hi !
i modeled this small system to start with IFC, i'm not that experienced using it
the upper beam is a complex profile : the core, concrete, the skin : Finish, it's modeled like that for technical reasons,
i want to export the structural elements only, the beam + two slabs, does the IFC export the beam finish or not ? and how to set it ! ( i'll export to revit structure
thanks

Just set the proper Partial Structure Display option ("Core Only" or "Core of Load-Bearing Elements Only" and when you export to IFC, export only Visible elements.
