Linking IFC in Shared Coordinates

Anonymous — Tue, 10 Jul 2018 07:45:58 GMT

Hello,
I'm having this following issue:

Survey point stands at 000, project point at A1 grid intersection. I made this possible by acquiring coordinated from dwg topography. Models align then linked perfectly.

However, whenI link IFC exported from Civil 3D - it links it much further than it should be. I tried exporting my models to ifc and putting it in a Navisworks – everything aligns perfectly.

Am I missing something? I've been trying to solve this problem for a while now and nothing seems to work..

Thank you.

Have you found a solution to this? We have the same problem in our office...

IFCs are in the correct position in Solibri - the wrong position in Revit.

When we like the Native Revit Files by Shared Coordinates, they are in the correct position.

However, our two collaborators have different Internal Origins, which is causing the discrepancy. I.e. when Revit links an IFC it can only link by Origin to Origin... what a disaster...
