General Discussion

@jeroenkoomen Thanks for the Tipp, i tried that as well. But as @Sebastian-Nybäck said it thought maybe there is a way so that the RAM usage can be optimized more. But it seems that the only option for now would to install more RAM but because I´m working on a laptop that will not be possible.

@YasmineD I understand, but @Solibrians why does it filter the rules per rows in an “AND” statement? Other rules behave as “OR” statement.
At the moment I do not see solution if I have to use 2 different classification.

Perfect! Thank you @JSN
Should I delete my (re) post ?

I could also elaborate further into this topic 🙂

Doors
When checking if a door has the appropriate width for escape routes, it is the nett width of the door (distance from inner frame until the door leaf in 90°) instead of the total opening for that door. Checking the total opening is not very precise, since there are different door frames (thicker or wider) which would influence the results.

Area/Person (Fläche/Nutzer)
This makes sense more for office buildings where it is regulated how many workers can be located per m². This then influences all other factors such as door width.
But with residential buildings (in Austria and Germany) it is not the m² that decides on how many people are going to escape, but more the number of rooms. So a living room with 30m² will have a different number than an office with that area.

There are additional details that are country specific, but I don’t want to open pandoras box 😊

I would also be interested in this topic…
I have tried this also b ut in IFC these components are as IfcFlowSegment. The problem appear in the definition of what is horizontal and what is vertical. A pipe at exactly 45° is vertical or horizontal or neither?

@remco Hi,
yes, I was thinking this would be an option, but I would rather not have reconfigure all my other bimcollab connections and settings…
Seems like removing a connection should also remove the API keys associated with it? But that’s not the case.

@Solibrians

Can someone of you tell me why this infomation isn’t in the excel output?

@skay thx

@lvsteijn said in Excel Report Worksheet Name:

I am looking for the ability to set the Worksheet name in a Excel report in a template.
Is this possible, or can this feature be added?

Which Solibri report(s) you are referring? Could you add a screenshot?

@jeroenkoomen ah too easy thanks :). Weird preset that used a mix of units. I need to over the defaults and also if we can install our own presets on all users.

one more attempt:
Einheitenpfeil in nähe gleich benannte Räume.smc

Ok I see what you mean now, in the file which actually contains the building elements the Arrow has only a relation to the Stairwell room as it is placed in this room but only points the the aparment it represents und shares just the one Attribute.

I will keep looking at the possiblity of using the door for grouping the Rooms.

Best regards,
Nathan Ashton

It would be also good to have an official sheet with the proper translations of the component names when you are not using Solibri in English as this is sometimes a bit confusing. Does anybody knw if such a helpful documentation is available too?

Hey @Niels,

if I understand correctly you could use Rule #232 (Manual Checking Rule) to “presort” those components which belong to a specific model by creating issues for those. The manual checking rule creates issues for all components which fulfill the component filter (see screenshot). If you configure the filter to create issues for any component which belongs to a specific model and specify the gatekeeper, that any component with an issue is taken forward by the subrules, this might do what you want to achieve?!

Thanks guys, I can see there are some possible workarounds here. I would probably prefer an alternative that is not dependent on parameters (or as least dependent as possible), both because our files are rather large already and as a general rule I prefer to avoid it if possible. Would be great if there was a built in feature for this, so you can make a rule to only include horizontal and sloped pipes for instance. It would make it a lot easier to make rules that give more meaningful results in many cases.

But maybe a parameter based classification is the easiest way to go, that would work for all pipe sizes I guess. Using the bounding box reduces the need for adding new parameters as the diameter already is defined, but then the setup needs to include all possible sizes. The main key for me at least is simplicity, so maybe the parameter approach is the simplest at this point. But would be great if regular filters also can be used on “properties that at not defined properties” but still can be read directly from the model if was a native feature of Solibri
