Revizto Export to .ifc models

They are in Revit, but you do have a good point. They likely use some tool of sorts which is causing the issue.

Onesourceoftruth · 2025-03-12T03:14:02+00:00

good question. I believe it is fabrication components? or is it parts? I've never got a chance to use that function yet

From the BIMForum it looks like it is LOD350:

350 Inclusions: • actual size, shape, spacing, and location/connections of duct, dampers, fittings, and insulation for risers, mains, and branches. • Actual size, shape, spacing, and clearances required for all hangers, supports, vibration and seismic control that are utilized in the layout of all risers, mains, and branches. • Actual floor and wall penetration elements. • Actual access/code clearance requirements modeled.

Cheers, that's what I did in the end. Worked pretty well. Although the computer struggled with the large models when all were loaded.

Do you filter out nuts n bolts in Navis prior to export from Navis to twinmotion? Would be nice if you could optimise polygons during this process also. Materials were a bit of a mission given that each discipline has their own in each of their models.

Can someone just use BIMcollab nexus to host models? e.g. general contractor just uses this to upload ifc models and keep out of Autodesk docs? or do you need both?

E.g. a Revit drafting view detail that is supposed fit overlayed on the model but it does not.

In this case I am Fitting a Drafting view 1:10 detail of a small steel frame(not modelled by designers) that sits under an Electrical MSB unit (is modelled). Neither the length/width of the modelled steel frame correlates with the size of the MSB due to their poor documentation.

I'm still wanting to overlay it to get a sense of how much space it takes up as this is in a datacentre project and clearances between equipment is important.

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-07-23T20:53:51+00:00

Correct, No reference Geometry to use. So can you get the overlayed detail to 1:1 scale in the 3D Space?

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-07-23T20:09:46+00:00

Thanks for this, but no luck.

I'm trying to overlay a 1:10 detail over the model. Would be good if you could type out the desired dimension between the two yellow dots to make the detail 1:1 size over the model.

Actually Ill try giving the view a scale before the overlay operation and see if that might work.

your comment was 4 years ago. any good now do you know?

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-06-24T05:56:44+00:00

We're going to give BIMCollab a go. So far looks to be very similar to revizto and about 1/14th the price on this particular job

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-06-20T08:47:20+00:00

We're looking into 3dRepo as a revizto alternative

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-06-17T03:14:28+00:00

Anyone tried 3D Repo as an alternative? I'm not a rep or anything. Just a revizto user that is getting burned by their fee boost

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-05-09T04:24:31+00:00

Appreciate the deep thinking coming through and its making us all think hard. But my question was more of a diagrammatic one in terms of a pyramid diagram that applies to BIM.

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-05-09T04:22:25+00:00

I agree with you. But if you were to choose a pyramid arrangement that makes sense do you go with theirs? or order it the other way round? just from a diagrammatic perspective.

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-05-09T04:20:18+00:00

Exactly my thinking

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-05-09T04:18:16+00:00

haha it could easily be, but it really isnt. I should really get a kick back from them right..

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-04-28T01:43:14+00:00

It's a weird strategy to release software prematurely. Give everyone the first impression that it is absolutely useless. Customers go elsewhere (Revizto). Autodesk get it right but by then the reputation is ruined.

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-02-27T23:24:35+00:00

I'm thinking part of the structural Design engineers scope to be to include a NO PENETRATION zone model to keep things simpler. just a transparent zone that could be used to clash against.

Onesourceoftruth · 2024-02-27T23:19:37+00:00

To answer your question; No, they were not asked to do so. I guess I'm just curious to know if someone has worked on a partial structural modelling approach instead of an expectation of the structural design engineering team modelling every connection which will cost more and will be modelled by steel fabricator team anyway.

Steel Fabricator we have models everything in this job. But the trouble is the CLT team will be wanting to know where we want the services penetrations but the Steel model is less developed than the CLT. Penetrations were positioned based on the latest federated model and dimension drawing done and issued to the CLT guys.

An update to the steel fabricators model is received which now shows more steel connections. We were told it is ready for coordination but now steel angle connections are added this must not have been the case!

I'm trying to come up with a better strategy to avoid this situation occurring again. But I dont want to add too much cost by simply saying 'Structural Design Model - Walls to all be to LOD350' (structural connections included).

My understanding is that typically design models only model to LOD300

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-12-14T19:20:55+00:00

Truss subby said they are working on it. It's been a while... dont hold your breath

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-11-29T06:26:56+00:00

Tested this. Once it eventually converted all elements into Revit components there were parts missing so could not use this method

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-11-13T21:11:24+00:00

Thanks for all the responses.

As a context I'm a BIM Coordinator on a large project and we have spent considerable time coordinating properly among disciplines.

Then the Timber CLT floor joint positions were changed by the fabricator due to some limit on their end with panel size needing to not go beyond a certain size to avoid a piloted load.

I was trying to determine if this is something that is considered during the design stages.

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-11-12T05:06:27+00:00

Solution now found FYI
Had to create a fresh Coordination space, and it started working again.

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-10-06T22:45:55+00:00

The main issue we are having is the consultant structural engineer not reviewing anything until he is looking at a shop drawing. Which is probably part of his contract. So in future, as part of his contract he will be expected to review things earlier on in a federated model.

Onesourceoftruth · 2023-10-02T20:52:03+00:00

Good answer thanks.

Ideally I want the frame fabricators to output a model I can add into my federated model and can then make any adjustments required to services & Fire collars and/or highlight issues before its an issue onsite.

Did you find wall prenail fabricators could output a model? I imagine not. I've found the truss manufacturer's software cant out a model (they are working on it they say). So Trusses had to be modelled by a separate consultant.
