Export grids and dimensions to IFC

Hi There,

is it possible to export gridlines and dimensions to IFC? Currently I see only curves in my IFC export (displayed as cilinders with a very small radius), but no dimensions. Also, Grids in my other IFC models are added to their own type:

the grid:

#380504= IFCGRID('2KEnsC5nLsIOQ0hFydLRsq',#15,$,$,$,#380323,#380501,(
#380378,#380388,#380398,#380468,#380478),(#380330,#380348,#380358,
#380368,#380408,#380418,#380428,#380438,#380448,#380458,#380488),$);

consisting of axes:

#380442= IFCCARTESIANPOINT((-1.7763568E-12,4500.));
#380444= IFCCARTESIANPOINT((15290.,4500.));
#380446= IFCPOLYLINE((#380442,#380444));
#380448= IFCGRIDAXIS('8',#380446,.T.);

I hope you can help me out.

best regards,
Tim

Hi @timcastelijn,

Unfortunately neither of those (grid and dimensions) are supported in the VisualARQ IFC importer.

We will let you know when support for annotations is added.

Kind regards.

hi @RamonC,

thanks for your response. However, I was looking for a way to draw a grid in rhino, then export to IFC.

best regards,
Tim

Hi,

It is not possible, the implementation will be all together for creation, import and export of grids, and there is no possible workaround with VisualARQ for now.

Kind regards
