VE Tech Tips - Revit to IESVE via GBXML
The VE software allows users to import gbXML files to improve interoperability for a streamlined workflow.
This VE Tech Tip explores how to prepare geometry within a Revit model for gbXML export, before importing it to the VE.
It covers:
- How to prepare a Revit model for geometry export to the VE, by considering the settings to use in the Revit model
- Setting room bounding
- Defining model spaces as rooms or spaces to determine what information will be transferred in addition to the building geometry
- Setting area and volume computations, including setting limits for levels, to ensure accurate geometry export for floors, voids and roofs
- Exporting via gbXML
- Going to the VE and using Create from BIM to import the gbXML file
- Checking the imported geometry
