Is there any planned work to provide Cobie downloads for Archicad that
align with the v3 schema? The current download is from 2018 and Archicad
22 and aligns to IFC 2x3 and Cobie Schema 2.4. In 2023 COBie V3.0 was
published as part of NIBS NBIMS-US™ V4 and contained many use...
Working with our service engineering colleagues we often need to leave
holes in slabs/walls/roofs for their services to pass through. In most
cases these openings need a fire collar to maintain the fire rating of
the element being passed through. These fire collars are a sta...
The bane of BIMserver managers everywhere must be those users who don't
want to be the one whose workstation does the PLN backup for shared
projects. Becasue if everyone on the team assumes someone else is doing
it, then the backups never get saved. How can we track/log thos...
An existing BIMcloud basic project when saved as a solo file and
re-shared loses the connection to the Properties from Property Labels.
The label shows a connection to an "UNAVAILABLE VALUE" GUID and the
label representation shows "---". With hundreds of views and thousands

According to the release notes of AC27 "The introduction of new
code-focused improvements will enhance your script editing experience:
When writing your code, a list with intelligent suggestions based on
your typing will appear next to the code line to help you. By reducing

Barry, we have tried the segmented approach for columns similar to what
you demonstrate but found that the level of manual input and management
required to keep it up to date was prohibitive. Ideally, we'd like to
have an object that is hosted to the beam or column that had ...
We are curious about the workflows others are using for this also. How
is anyone handling steel connections? Oftentimes a simple beam or column
fits inside our modeled building, but once the connection
plates/bolts/grouting are added the structure starts to protrude.
Capturi...
Barry, agree with the logic of the approach for walls, but what we are
trying to do is a single approach for walls and slabs. The only tool
that works on both is the Opening tool.
As a BIM practitioner for more than 25 years, I have been continually researching and applying BIM technology, methods and processes to achieve a more cooperative, coordinated approach for clients, removing stress from the design process and resulting in more cost-effective solutions as a direct result of limiting the need for re-work.
