Additional Information
· Only one architectural model per IFC file (no merged IFC files).
· Revit spaces should not be exported as IfcSpace, otherwise they will overlay the rooms.
· Due to Revit's own geometric minimum tolerances, inaccuracies within the Ifc file may cause problems with the IfcSpaces to be converted. This would have corresponding consequences for the Revit Rooms to be generated. To compensate for this Revit-side deficit, ifc2room identifies these spaces, calculates the error, and documents the respective spaces in the log file. At the end of the program run, ifc2room lists the converted, the unconverted, and the over-calculated rooms for checking purposes.
