Introduction

This WIKI page documents openstandards for Costing using IFC: WIP Demo 1 15/05/2021:



Project setup

  • Option 1: Native authoring of IFC in BlenderBIM

You can find the command in Blender under Scene > Building Information Modeling > System Setup. This will create a basic spatial tree. It will create a tree of collections with the structure IfcProject > IfcSite > IfcBuilding > IfcStorey This is merely for convenience instead of having to create it all by yourself, since all IFC exports require a valid spatial tree. You can see the tree of collections in the outliner when this is done.

BlenderBIM Quantity Take off Tools

--> derive dimensions --> derive formwork areas

Part III: Assigning Tasks / Resources to Cost Items

Part III: Creating Schedule of Rates based on Processes, Resources and Products
