Hi all, I have recently been looking into pulling 5D costing data from our Archicad models into schedules, I am starting from scratch & am coming across a few issues. I feel I will have less issues with the architectural side of this data however I can't seem to get MEP data...

Hi All, It's Friday, and I find myself yet again fixing models for careless Archicad users. I like to try and correct mistakes with the user & choose education over restriction. However, some people cannot be taught & will choose the quick way 9 out of 10 times. These people...

Hi All, It is my companies policy that we update our edition of ArchiCAD every 2 versions / years or major change in available tools etc. we currently use ArchiCAD 26 for all Architecture, structures, landscape & MEP. ArchiCAD 27 & 28 have some great features for Architectur...

Hi All, Having some problems recently with IFC files from Revit coming in with additional levels to what we have in our Archicad model, which is making my life more difficult as Archicad seems to ignore the items in the IFC on the floors that aren't listed in our ArchiCAD mo...

Hi All, Currently send our models over to Revit users using IFC or RVT saves from the Archicad model, we have noticed that door swings do not really transfer through to Revit... well they kind of do when you move around the model in plan view in Revit they can be seen but wh...

Hi, I have had similar issues before, you can actually turn off the IFC openings completely in model filters in IFC translators in Archicad. once an IFC is exported from the Archicad model, use the Improved IFC import plug in for Revit to import the model in, if you turn off...

A fresh approach in the morning always helps! managed to fix this today, I exported just the ceilings to IFC which told me that 100+ elements did not participate in clash detection..... not an error message I had got with previous attempts at exporting an IFC for this projec...

Thanks, I managed to get this to work in the end through classifications instead of picking the object name (Which I couldn't find in the list). I have seen other people prefer the curtain wall tool, think I need to brush up on my Architectural knowledge as I have always bee...

Thanks for your response, after a bit of digging I found a method that works for modelling fences at different height etc snapping to a mesh. I actually came across your website a month or so ago & its been really helpful.  https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/How-t...

Hi Sergio, better late than never.... just expanding on laszlo's awnser. so with IFC files from archicad I found it easier to open up the file in Revit & change the category type of the objects that come out on the wrong categories. However when you export to RVT from Archic...
