IFC export issue

Visualarq does not seem able to correctly export in IFC the object parameters of a window which is in two walls at the same time.
In the image below we see the export of the model opened in BIMVISION:

  • on the left: in “objects and properties” mode
  • on the right: geometry only"

Only one wall is cut…

Could we fix that? This is annoying for duplex windows for example. For the moment the solution that I found is to split the window in two but it is not visually satisfactory.
THANKS

Hi @guillaume.dupas,

Please, could you send us the file here or to visualarq@asuni.com? We will need the VisualARQ file and the IFC file you are getting. I assume you need the result you are getting on the right, is it?

ok

in addition, it does not export the extension properties of the wall elements (in object and properties version)

Hi @guillaume.dupas,

I didn’t receive your email. Please, make sure you sent it to the correct email address. You can also post it here or send it to me in a private message if you prefer.

Hi @guillaume.dupas,

As for the wall not being extended, you are doing this extension using the wall layer offset option and it looks like this offset is not being exported to IFC. You can get this extension using the _vaWallExtend or the _vaSubtractSolids commands.

As for the problem with the door opening, I could reproduce and I have just reported it. I will let you know when we have a solution for this.
