Hi,
I'm finishing our internal AC21 template and kind of can't decide upon which strategy to use for hotlinking IFC-files. The normal case is that we get MEP fron MagiCAD and struct from Revit/Tekla. I'm tempted to create one translator+building material for the most common disciplines and let the BM override the IFC. This way, if everyone uses the correct translator that is..., the ventilation model would always be all red in 3D and the water would be blue as an example. It's beneficial for us to work the same way between projects since it makes it easier to balance staff resources. I've also created override rules working accordingly for the 2D-grapics.
So right now it is one colour (2D and 3D) for each discipline and one layer in the template.
If there is a need for layer separation the model manager can fix project specific translators.
What's your take?
Cheers,
Mats
