22 | Autodesk Revit <strong>IFC</strong> manual<br />
Revit categories are assigned to <strong>IFC</strong> classes using a mapping table. This table is stored as a text file<br />
(*.txt) and can be customized directly in Revit or by using a text editor.<br />
The first column, the Revit category, is<br />
unchangeable and automatically lists all the<br />
categories and sub-categories available in the<br />
Revit project.<br />
of the contents and structure of the <strong>IFC</strong> model,<br />
and therefore cannot be specified across the<br />
board. However, Revit is delivered with basic<br />
settings that meet a certain basic standard.<br />
The <strong>IFC</strong> class name column contains the <strong>IFC</strong> class<br />
to which the sub-category or category should be<br />
assigned. If the category is not to be exported,<br />
you can enter Not Exported. This can vary<br />
depending on the workflow and requirements<br />
The <strong>IFC</strong> classes and types must be entered<br />
manually, with the correct spelling. This is how<br />
footings from the <strong>IFC</strong> class become assigned to<br />
the IfcFooting. The list of classes supported in<br />
Revit is regularly updated and can be called up<br />
