The following are the main features of the app-
- Automatically creates Autodesk® Revit® elements with either walls and floors /Direct shape
- Allows selecting the methodology adopted for calculating deduction in formwork between "Actual" and "IS Code"

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What else should I know about this product?
Two-run modes are provided- DirectShape and Walls&Floors. The direct shape method is faster and more robust but it creates elements that are not editable in Revit. The Walls&FLoors method creates native Revit walls and floors but is slower and more sensitive to geometry errors.
The following project parameters can be added to the wall and floor categories to transfer other data also from the host to the formwork element-
IfcLevel
HostCategory
IfcName
Please note that in order for this to work, the host structural elements must contain the parameters above. All or any number of the above parameters may be included as per requirement.
Are there any known issues with this product?
Does not work for curved/circular elements.
Certain surfaces may be skipped during formwork generation if an error occurs in creating the formwork object due to source geometry.
Currently, it does not support multistory stairs, if each flight of the stair is individually modeled then it will run.
Is there additional support information provided?
