Hi,
After a lot of investigation, I discovered that the disability[pearing elements disappeared because they were all crafted with Air as a material and then painted with a surface override. My translator was set to activate elements that participated in collision detection and so, they just vanished into thin air.
Air is a thing in ARCHICAD. That's the big lesson here.
