IFC Import - Wrong height

Hi fellas!

I just imported an IFC into Revit through BIM360. In Solibri it all looks like it should, but in Revit it ends up at the wrong height. How can this be fixed and why is it happening at all?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,


What settings did you put in when you exported the IFC? That would be the first place were I would look.

We didn't make it ourselves, so I don't know actually. 
But the all IFC:s ends up at the correct place when loaded into Solibri or BIMCollab, it's just the import into Revit that seems off (I guess it could be because it uses project origin when inserted?)

Yeah okay. I had a look around and saw another thread about something similar. There isn't any final solution, but they have suggestions for a work around.

Are you able to take the IFC file and convert it to RVT file?
