Functions of the IFC Project Manager

• View all IFC model entities generated from the Archicad  project (including IFC import content) in a hierarchy
• View all IFC data available for project elements
• Create new IFC data (custom IFC Properties and Classification Reference) for any model element
• Group elements or assign entities to elements (called IFC Assignments) and manage their IFC data
• Manage IFC Type Products assigned to elements with their with their IFC data
• Assign elements directly to the IfcSite or IfcBuilding. For example, the neighboring buildings and site context elements (trees, fences, roads, vehicles etc.) can be assigned to the IfcSite; thus, their default direct relation to their home story is removed.
• Update the IFC model with the modifications of the Archicad project
• Navigate easily between the Archicad model and the IFC model
• Filter the IFC model by elements visible in the current view
• Find elements both in the IFC and Archicad models by their IFC ID’s
• In Teamwork, reserve the IFC Project Manager to modify data for the following elements: IfcProject, IfcBuilding, IfcSite, Assignments, and Type Products. To modify data for model elements (e.g. IfcWall, IfcColumn, IfcBeam) in IFC Project Manager, you must also reserve the elements themselves.

The IFC Project Manager palette is a modeless dialog box, so you can keep it open while working in the project.
