Another interesting note is that back in Kyoto, Japan, this year for the 2017 KCC (Key Client Conference) Viktor Varkonyi, CEO of GRAPHISOFT told a small press corp at a lunch event that the Hungarian company had no interest in supporting the Teigha BIM SDK directly at the present time, unlike its sister company, Vectorworks, Inc.It is not clear from BIM6x that the company utilized this SDK, but if one had to guess, they clearly did. The Teigha BIM SDK enables the data exchange between both Revit Families (.rfa) and Revit files (.rvt). GRAPHISOFT is a member of the Open Design Alliance where the Teigha BIM SDK and libraries are available to member companies.In the BIM industry, the open consensus is that the IFC interoperability standard would be ideally utilized for model-to-model data exchange, but a substantial amount of US-manufacturer product data exist in Revit families where Revit is particularly well deployed in the United States.

The RFA & RVT Geometry Exchange add-on is now available free-of-charge and is both Mac and Windows compatible. Exporting the 3D model geometry of ARCHICAD into the.rfa object files and creating GDL objects The new Add-on supports the following workflows: “It further expands the many file format options ARCHICAD users can utilize in their workflows.” “Although not a replacement for IFC workflows, the RFA & RVT Geometry Exchange offers another choice for interoperability for ARCHICAD users, not to mention access to thousands of RFA objects currently available online,” explained Link Ellis, BIM6x ARCHICAD Technical Director. rvt) file for model comparison with Revit users.” Not Meant to Diminish IFC Interoperability Standard “ARCHICAD users can easily utilize it to hotlink an RVT (Revit) file into their project as well as convert their 3D geometry into a Revit (. “We are excited to see the worldwide interest during the initial launch of the add-on,” said Chris Clark, BIM6x ARCHICAD Solutions Director. 01 – BIM6x’s new RFA & RVT Geometry Exchange Add-on for ARCHICAD 21.
