Export Revit file to IFC file to import to ArchiCAD

[Anonymous]

I want to export Revit file to IFC file in order to import to ArchiCAD and got some issues:

- Grid lines and Levels in Revit are not exported to IFC file which is opened in ArchiCAD. ( But if I open IFC file in Revit by link IFC, I can see the levels and grid)

Even when I use Add-in "IFC_Model_Exchange_with_ARCHICAD_for_Revit_2019-22-4018-1.1", I got another issue when opening IFC file in ArchiCAD 22 is "just have grid lines and no levels, no other elements". 

If anyone knows how to export Revit file to IFC to open in ArchiCAD, pls give me some advice. Many thanks!

Thank you for your posting @Anonymous. 

Have you checked IFC Options > Grids is not set to Not Exported? 

Do you see grids and levels in other applications, like Navisworks or Solibri to check if this is an issue when loading IFC in ArchiCAD?

Thank you so much for your answer. I already exported it successfully. 

In addition, do you know how to export CurtainWall, Stair, Railing in Revit into ArchiCAD that be recognized with the same definition as CurtainWall, Stair, Railing. When I export, these elements are defined as "Object" in ArchiCad. I'm wondering that is there any solution for this issue or this is the common conflict between Revit model and ArchiCAD model. 

Once again, thanks for your support!

I have another question relating to the exported grid. After exporting into ArchiCAD, I have a Gridlines in each building's storey (it means I have many Gridlines like below picture). Do you have any solution that enables to export only 1 gridline for all storeys? Thanks in advance

Dear @Anonymous @yurikim 

do you have a solution for this issue to export CurtainWall, Stair, Railing in Revit into ArchiCAD that be recognized with the same definition as CurtainWall, Stair, Railing. and not as Objects ?

Thank you
