| S/N | TASK | REMARKS |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Study the IFC+SG regulatory requirements for the different gateways. | Refer to link for details on
key gateways. Refer to link for details on COP. |
| 2 | Study the steps for preparing an IFC+SG model. Refer to the Glossary of Identified Components for additional information. | Refer to link for IFC+SG 101. |
| 3 | Ensure that you have downloaded the relevant IFC+SG toolkits and resource files. | Refer to link for details. |
| 4 | Use third-party applications to support the IFC+SG model preparation. | Refer to link for details. |
| 5 | Read through the Model Submission Good Practice Guide. | Refer to link for details. |
| 6 | Read through the Geo-Referencing and Coordination Across Disciplines Good Practice Guide | Refer to link for details. |
| 7 | Read through the Block and File Management Good Practice Guide | Refer to link for details. |
| 8 | Read through the MEP Services Good Practice Guide. | Refer to link for details. |
| 9 | Before submitting, review the exported federated IFC files. When using an IFC Viewer (BIMVision or BIMCollab Zoom), ensure that it is the latest build. (Note: Registration may be required, but both viewers are free.) Download BIMVision here. Download BIMCollab Zoom here. Essential Points for Model Quality: ➡️Ensure that IFC models can be federated together, as intended. ➡️Ensure that components are exported to the correct IFC entity, and subtyped with
the relevant IFC+SG properties and property sets. ➡️Ensure that there is only one IfcSite per IFC file when exporting with linked files. ➡️ For Revit Users: In the Revit IFC exporter, select Additional Content>>Linked Files>>Export in the same IfcSite. ➡️Ensure that there are no unreferenced items by checking that all elements created in Revit are referenced to a level datum. • If you notice any unreferenced items, locate and resolve their referencing issues. • For Revit Users: If you encounter a warning while opening an IFC file in BIMVision,
download the log and use the elementID (tag) or Global Unique Identifier (GUID) to locate the elements in Revit. ➡️Ensure that all level datums are aligned across models. Each datum must have a unique name and a unique associated GUID. To avoid confusion, datum names should also incorporate their GUIDs (with the same Finished Floor Level). | Refer to link for details. |
