When asked in one comment whether he would be continuing his Freecad BIM videos, he replied "Vorerst nicht, BlenderBIM hat ein paar Nachteile, aber das direkte Arbeiten und Speichern in ifc

I just love your FreeCAD-like feature to set parameters from a live spreadsheet, tbh I wonder why Blender hasn't implemented one yet (or has it?)

In fact, user F_Rosa in FreeCAD developed a new Movie Workbench, used Cycles in the FreeCAD Render Workbench, and created a few amazing videos like below without exporting to Blender to my understandi

I installed BlenderBIM long time ago (in fact with Moult's help, thanks) but never had time to explore further. FreeCAD Native-IFC was installed and tested more frequently but not had the time to co

Hi @kulasegaram I think you have got your list, BBIM & FreeCAD are the alternatives to Proprietary BIM and the only FOSS IFC authoring software. Unless anyone can correct me?

* FreeCAD-NativeIFC Add-on for FreeCAD

As of today, applications for organisations are open (not yet for contributors). I expect projects like BRL-CAD et all, IfcOpenShell / BlenderBIM Add-on, FreeCAD, Blender, GIMP, OpenStreetMap, OSGeo,

Native-IFC in FreeCAD is developed almost alone by Yorik oneself, would have any discussion over this development (and collaboration with OSArch? Understood under the hood there are shared codes and

We'll have a lot of FreeCAD at FOSDEM in Brussels this year, and once again a FreeCAD day the day before, on february 2nd, 2024, this year together with KiCAD. See here for all the details: https://bl

I have been learning about architecture, technologies, and software to build things, currently learning FreeCAD and BIM.

Welcome @KevinKW you have come to the right place to embark on your mission of making a BIM model. FreeCAD and BlenderBIM are the tools. Quite different to each other IMHO, I suggest having a read on

My google search '"freecad" "brickschema"' during my research regarding IFC2RDF-Converters written in C++ led me here.

Hi @JanF , I'm aware of how the workflow with propietary/commercial software work. I love also IFC being the native Format to be edited in the preference software. That's why I love the developments

@camontellano that is what all proprietary software does. The idea behind ifcopenshell is to be completely independent and allow ifc to be the native format. The main benefit of this is, you can take

* CAD/BIM System and GIS (Blender, BlenderBIM, Freecad, QGIS, QCad and Cloud Compare)

You can export from FreeCAD an IFC file with objects attached directly to the project, although indeed it's bad practice. We allowed it because we wanted to advocate for the possibility to do so. In e

Regarding rebars in FreeCAD, you can create them with the BIM rebar tools, but cannot edit them via NativeIFC yet
