ifc2room reads architectural rooms (IfcSpaces) from an IFC file and transfers them to a desired Autodesk® Revit® file.
Free
ifc2room makes it possible to read architectural rooms (in the form of levels, room geometries, room numbers, and room names) from an IFC file and transfers them to a desired Autodesk® Revit® file.
The primary target group for ifc2room is mechanical and electrical engineers who use Revit themselves but are provided with the architectural models as Ifc files in openBIM projects. In order to generate the required MEP rooms in Revit, the HVAC engineers need a valid data set in the form of Revit architecture rooms.
This is exactly what ifc2room provides on the basis of Ifc files.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What else should I know about this product?
· Only one architectural model per IFC file (no merged IFC files).
· Revit spaces should not be exported as IfcSpace, otherwise they will overlay the rooms.
· Due to Revit's own geometric minimum tolerances, inaccuracies within the Ifc file may cause problems with the IfcSpaces to be converted. This would have corresponding consequences for the Revit Rooms to be generated. To compensate for this Revit-side deficit, ifc2room identifies these spaces, calculates the error, and documents the respective spaces in the log file. At the end of the program run, ifc2room lists the converted, the unconverted, and the over-calculated rooms for checking purposes.
