Revit LT export to ifc empty!

Anonymous — Mon, 13 Jan 2020 10:54:58 GMT

Hi,

I'm having trouble exporting an IFC file from my Revit LT 2019 model. Whenever I try to export the ifc file is always empty (about 6KB). I've had a look in the help files and forums and think it might be to do with the mapping file, but I'm not sure what. Please can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

Emma

Can you share the file?

Are you even allowed to export to IFC in Revit LT?

Thanks for trying the export from your side. I have checked and my settings are the same as yours, but I still can't export it myself. Are there any other setting I should be checking?

Thanks

Yes. Check th IFC options and make sure to load the default file exportlayers-ifc-IAI.txt (attached)

Thanks, but I have already done that after my search of the help files!

I no longer run REVITLT2019, but I am able to export your file (with errors) from RevitLT2020
