Too many measurements

agroni

Has anyone any idea how to reduce the number of these measurements when checking components for their distance from other components?

For the green pipe, there are 9 elements, hence there are 9 measures. Throughout the project I have hundreds of these measurements which make my file slower and especially the Checking tab.
Is there a possibility to group them maybe based on height, system, area???

Any tips?

You could perhaps use the filter to only filter out certain components, or pipes over a certain length? Probably not exactly what you are trying to achieve though

Hi there,

Some quick thoughts, maybe it will help.

I would only include IfcDuctSegment and not the IfcDuctFitting.
Or only the insulation of these elements (IfcCovering that are related to a system per example)

Then I would maybe check these against IfcSpace and exclude technical room types and nor IfcSlabs.

All the best!

@thudelicious
sadly this rule does not include a filtering as other SOLs do. Maybe a cascade rule could do the job…

@mathieu-farine
That is a good tip. A more efficient way would be to exclude the Fittings instead of including all the necessary components.
I am a bit cautious with excluding components in certain spaces. I prefer to get some components more instead of excluding some that might have a big impact. Still, this will only reduce the number of these measurements by a small fraction. Or maybe do you know a better SOL to check the net height of pipes against the floor?
