Optimal settings for Ifc Export from Revit

Q. What are the optimal Ifc Export settings in Revit for creating an Ifc model File to import to dRofus?


A. 

These are the export settings that I find produce a reasonable Ifc model.

  • I usually export from a 3D view with all visible and define for "in session settings"

  • I use the IFC 2x3 Coordination View version 

  • Next tab, ensure that Rooms are exported

  • Make sure you export the Revit Property sets as well if you want to capture Revit Parameters in your Ifc Model

  • Set detail to High or Medium for larger models

  • Check most or all boxes in this tab


The resulting Ifc Model should contain the Rooms as "Spaces" in the Ifc Model
