Project Setup and Costing Tools
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.
- Option 2: Importing an .ifc file
- Go to File --> Import --> Industry Foundation Classes
- Navigate to your .ifc file and Click Import
Creating a Cost Schedule
Entity Definition of IfcCostSchedule An IfcCostSchedule brings together instances of IfcCostItem either for the purpose of identifying purely cost information as in an estimate for constructions costs or for including cost information within another presentation form such as a work order.
