                 Customize the mapping
                 of revit categories to IfC
                 entities.

























                             5.  Open the IFC file in an application such as Solibri Model Checker or Viewer, and you will
                                be able to see the Revit grid lines in the model-only exported format.
                             There are two other methods to customize the classification mappings for IFC. One is to
                           use subcategories in families. As an example, a Revit family created for an elevator has been
                           assigned to the Generic Models category; however, a subcategory named Elevators was created
                           in the family (Figure 7.35).

                   subcategories

                 customized
                 classification.
