This Revit shared parameter text file provides type-level mapping definitions to ensure consistent IFC data export and interoperability. This technical dataset serves as a structured companion file for Revit projects requiring precise IFC attribute alignment. It contains a collection of predefined shared parameters specifically mapped to IFC type properties, enabling architects and BIM managers to maintain data integrity across open-standard workflows. The file structure adheres to standard Revit shared parameter formatting, ensuring compatibility with project templates and family libraries. By defining these attributes at the type level, the file facilitates the automated population of IFC data, reducing manual entry errors and streamlining the documentation process for large-scale, multidisciplinary BIM coordination tasks.

The download is a 758 KB file containing .TXT files.

Users load this text file directly into the Revit Shared Parameters manager to append the predefined attributes to project or family files. Once loaded, these parameters allow for the direct mapping of Revit type information to corresponding IFC entities. This setup is essential for ensuring that parameters are correctly recognised during the export process, maintaining consistency in data-rich models, and supporting the automated generation of schedules that require specific IFC-compliant data fields across all project components.

This asset is essential for BIM managers and lead coordinators working on projects requiring rigorous open-BIM compliance. It is used during the project setup phase to standardise data exchange requirements for structural, architectural, and MEP disciplines. Professionals working on complex commercial, healthcare, or institutional projects will find this indispensable for ensuring that type-based information remains accurate when exporting models for coordination in external IFC viewers. It integrates seamlessly into existing Revit templates, supporting efficient data management throughout the entire project lifecycle.
