Sorry, I mean a external server, like BIM Server or similar that could manage this process trough a FreeCAD api or similar.

Re: BIM Workbench

There are several paths we can follow. One is of course that we need to make IFC import/export in FreeCAD faster. The current bottlenecks are 1) geometry is transferred from IfcOpenShell to FreeCAD as strings, which means extra encoding/decoding operation and 2) creating a lot of document objects i...

Re: BIM Workbench

hi guys, What do you think is the best solution to deal with the size of the files? Currently I am able to connect to my BIM Server (1.5) and keep the session open, then select my project and the revision that I want to download. (I divided the process in 3 steps since FreeCAD crashes dealing with b...

ArchGrid - External Geometry

HI guys, I'm working a bit on the Grid creating objects (sketches) with external geometry (to the grid). The problem is when I add new rows or columns the objects appears in another position of the grid. I assume FreeCAD rebuilt the grid, is there a way to keep the links (constraints) in the same po...

Re: Reinforcement WB

Thanks, Yorik for the hint. :) Here is the PR: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/1647 Great job @amrit3701. Now the sketch and the rebar (as solid) have the same angle. The only problem that I see now is the way the points of the rebar (sketch) are created. They are created far from the struc...

Re: Reinforcement WB

Thanks @amrit3701,

Sometimes the sketch is in the right position but the solid is not. I think you are right about the CalculatePlacement function.

Reinforcement WB

Hi guys I've been working with the rebar addon and I'm trying to improve the way the objects are created. I created a tool for Wire Reinforcement Columns. As you can see you only need to select the type of reinforcement you want,the faces for rebar and stirrup ( It also supports triangular stirrups)...

Re: Dev logs of Rebar Addon for FreeCAD - GSoC project

Hi, I used your Rebar Addon to create multiple rebars and stirrups in one step, I made some modifications to the code and now it takes to consideration the rebar length, overlaps and type of stirrup. But I'm having problems when structure have angle, the "Map a sketch to a face" doesn't wo...

Re: BIM Workbench

No, it's correct... The BIM workbench resides in /Mod/BIM, but the classification files must not go there, otherwise they'll pollute the source code. So they go in /BIM (one level up). That's where all the presets of the BIM wb get stored (currently only the project tool) You are right! Sorry my mi...

Re: BIM Workbench

You can update via the addon manager, just press the install/update button I might be doing something wrong, I did that and had the same problem, I went to https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/BIM_Workbench and check the BimClassification.py and in the line 87 you have: presetdir = os.path.join(FreeCAD...
