Feedback:
the system is working so far good. This week I will do the next check after docoumenting the issues as you suggested.

One thing to note about this workflow is the selection of errors from the list. If there are 50 errors in one category, you need to select each one of them to create one issue for all 50 errors. It is rather not a very efficient workflow and can be prone to mistakes. That is maybe why I was selecting previously the category instead of each single error.

And this leads to my other request for improvement of the software:
Finding more easily components / from Results
It would be helpful if such a possibility existed, to automaticaly select errors from a category.

@Konstantin thank you so much for your answer!
I finally had time to “test” your suggestion (second way) and it works quite good! The IFCs I have are not properly well done, so the rule works so and so, but I understood the idea behind and it is super!
Thanks again!

From an IFC perspective this makes for a very incorrect model, no system handles what you are trying to do well. Archicad, slightly better but your not going to find much support in the BIM community for these “Fake” model methods. IE models that are not actually modeled to match the building. Revit users would would just tell you to use groups instead of separate models as Revit doesn’t support “Linked Model Instance” export, because it doesn’t have a system to create unique instance data for linked models… IE you would have 100s of elements with the same GUID.

You are very welcome, I hope it works the way you wish to! 🙏

I am looking solution to same problem. Is it somehow possible to add that property value not equal?
Something like this

@Lauri-Luoma
Thanx mate…works perfect 👍
I think the mistake that I was doing, was defining the Wall as a FireRating.Compartmenattion=True in the “Compared component property”.
Anyway, works as a charm. So here is the recepie if someone is interested in:

Yes. The true root cause of course is that never should one need to parse separate values from text. We do support getting the materials from a component programmatically in our Java API (https://solibri.github.io/Developer-Platform/9.10.4/javadoc/com/solibri/smc/api/model/Component.html#getMaterials--) but until now there hasn’t been an easy way to use this to export the data for post-processing and analysis (only to use it in custom rule logic). Soon I hope it is (Solibri Society 2020).

Thank you, this is definitely clearing up some things!

Hi @Ion-Chan ,
As you discribed it, thats my current workflow. but it takes up a lot of time to add a slide to each issue…
What about the viewpoint that is missing in revit… does anyone have this problem?

Hi @JSN.

The plugin is now available at:

@lasse-lindqvist said in Reporting coordinates of issues/clash center:

This would require at least partly a custom rule for visualizing this.
Our Rules API (https://solibri.github.io/Developer-Platform/) actually happens to have a Heatmap Rule as one of the examples. It generates a heatmap from components matching a given filter. Could it be used with the clash detection rule to generate what you are looking for?

Using that rule requires building it with Java+Maven build system (so some Java programming knowledge is required) and copying the rule package to the Solibri installation folder.

The visuel part is not the challange, but we cannot subtract the coordinate of the clash, thats our headache.
As of now we do not have any java resource at hand, but interresting approach!
In another discussion regarding this subject the reporting parameter “Camera_location”, which might be a workaround, havent tested it yet.

all we need is a excel export of XYZ coordinates for each clash.

Hi Ion,

Be aware that a level in Revit is not allways exported as a building storey in IFC. This has to do with settings in revit and export settings. If an element in Revit is hosted on a level that is not exported to a building storey in IFC… it will be matched to another building storey.
Hope you understand. Only levels that are marked “building storey” in Revit will be exported to IFC.

@JohanE Thank you for telling me that…I don’t think I would have ever figured that out!

Hi @petrinnn,

That is not possible in Solibri.
Offcourse it can be done with other software tools, like SimpleBIM.

Other workaround is to make a copy of your revit model, bind links in this copy and then export to IFC.
Only use this copy with binded links to export to IFC.

This is not really a question for this forum by the way 🙂

Kind regards,

Jeroen

You can try to add this line to Solibri options file:
C:\Program Files\Solibri\SOLIBRI\Solibri.vmoptions

-Dmodel-volume-max-layers=5

This limits the buildings total volume calculation to 5 horizontal layers.
Note: This lowers the accuracy.

Could you describe your idea more detail?

Is there a component that represents “the corner”? The same service means the same System? What is the goal for the check?
