Hi Everyone! For the past year I have been working on a new version of my IFC Manager extension. The first versions were very much focused on the dutch specific way of working with IFC surrounding the “BIM Basic IDM” and it’s dutch matching “NL-SfB” classification system (implemented as a native S…

New version 3.2.0 adds common PropertySets when applying IFC types. For example when labeling a component as “IfcWall”, the official propertyset “PSet_WallCommon” is added. This gives the possibility to set parameters like “IsExternal” and “LoadBearing” [image] [image] Release SketchUp…

Another update, version 3.3.0, the last one for 2020! :grin: Big improvement in exporting of properties Added site to context menu [image] Release SketchUp-IFC-Manager 3.3.0 · BIM-Tools/SketchUp-IFC-Manager Big improvement in exporting of properties Added site to context menu …

New release containing a lot of clean up and some improvements in performance. Also fixed a bug that got into the DIN 276-1 classification export. Also included the improved NL-SfB classification by @MikeWayzovski ! Release SketchUp-IFC-Manager 3.4.3 · BIM-Tools/SketchUp-IFC-Manager · GitHub

Ok, new release that I consider the definitive 3.x version! Should be pretty stable by now. If you do find any issues, please let me know. [image] Release SketchUp-IFC-Manager 3.4.7 · BIM-Tools/SketchUp-IFC-Manager Fixed persistent GlobalId's

and 3.5.0 [image] Release SketchUp-IFC-Manager 3.5.0 · BIM-Tools/SketchUp-IFC-Manager Improved IFC spatial hierarchy implementation especially for nested IfcElementAssemly entities

Note: Currently this is a “Pre-Release” and not yet a “stable” version.

Hi brewsky I am interested in using Omniclass in my SketchUp files. Can you tell me if I can use your plugin to do it?

Technically it should be pretty simple, but the license for those kind of classification systems (uniformat,omniclass etc) has been keeping me from including them because it’s not clear to me of it’s allowed to redistribute those lists (in another form like the Sketchup skc/xsd)

OmniClass_EULA.PDF (37.2 KB) Here is some information about the licenses. As I understand it the lists can be distributed without modification. https://www.nationalbimstandard.org/copyright

To be able to load the list into sketchup it must be converted into a SKC file, and I believe that is prohibited due to the fact that it would be a “derivative work”. Classifying Objects | SketchUp Help Some philosophers say that naming something is the first step toward figuring out wh…
