This Revit instance-level shared parameter text file enables precise IFC attribute mapping and openBIM data exchange workflows. This technical dataset consists of a standardised text file containing instance-based shared parameters designed for integration with Revit projects. It provides the necessary schema to map Revit properties directly to IFC entities and property sets, facilitating consistent data structure across multi-platform BIM environments. The file structure adheres to the requirements of the open-source Revit IFC exporter, ensuring that critical metadata remains intact during the export process. It serves as a foundational bridge for information management, allowing users to define and track specific asset attributes that are essential for interoperability and project-wide data integrity.

The download is a 737 KB file containing .TXT files.

To implement this asset, load the text file into the Revit Shared Parameters interface via the Manage tab. Once loaded, users can assign these parameters to project families or system components to populate required IFC data fields. This setup ensures that instance-based information is correctly captured and categorised during the IFC export process, maintaining data consistency throughout the lifecycle of the model and supporting automated scheduling or facility management requirements.

These shared parameters are essential for BIM managers and coordinators working on large-scale openBIM projects where cross-platform data exchange is a priority. They are typically utilised during the project setup phase to ensure that all exported models meet specific IFC standards for building documentation and asset management. Professionals involved in residential, commercial, or industrial sectors will find this resource invaluable for streamlining the export of non-geometric data and ensuring that all building elements are correctly classified for downstream software analysis.
