Goal of this document

Try to investigate:

  • a parallel workflow in FreeCAD and BlenderBIM
  • make a detailed ifc4 model both Freecad and BlenderBim
  • produce documentation from both

Currently this document is WORK in Progress . Participation is always welcome.

Project description

Creating a simple freestanding annex to a country summerhouse.

Existing and proposed

caption

Functional requirements

Designed as three (possibly Four) adjoining 'buildings', from left to right in below images and sketches.

  • One (Leftmost)
    • Kids playhouse with elevated 'bedroom'
  • Second
    • Sanitary
  • Third
    • bedroom
  • Fourth
    • Eavaluating
    • Maybe Storing of firewood and Garden Utensils

Initial Sketches

Modeling approach

This is a minor project, but large enough to investigate and document different approaches.

Some main initial thoughts

Project should

  • Use OpenBIM, IFC4
  • Validated
  • Geo-located
  • Models
  • Documentation
  • Produce qty Takeoff

Divide project files by discipline

  • Landscape
    • Terrain
  • Structural
  • Architectural
  • MEP
    • Mechanical
    • Electrical
    • Plumbing
  • Interior

Alternative

import bpy context = bpy.context print(len(context.selected_objects))

BlenderBIM Project Setup

We need to beware that project setup refers to to separate setups. The Blender Project setup, and the BlenderBim project setup. These are basically totally separated, and serve different functions.

  • Blender Project setup
    • deals with organization of blender files and assets.
  • BlendeBIM project setup
    • organizes IFC structure, internal to file.

Blender Tips

Project Setup

Organizing files soon comes vital, plan ahead, avoid spaghetti syndrome

Some links

Linked Models

In order to produce a multidisciplinary approach, containing several model. Model should for BIM purposes be linked, not appended

Is Linking Files Good Practice?

The biggest advantage of linking is that it makes files easier for Blender to compute. It also makes it easier for you to manage - provided you have a coherent structure. The Linked Library Addon can be considered essential for workflow.

Setting the background in one file that you linked in, should give no problem, and you will probably wish you did it sooner


The steps are the same as appending: File > Link or Ctrl+Alt+O, find the .blend file to link from, then select the element you wish to link, and click Link from Library in the top right.

As a resource: there is an excellent explanation on - Jason's Blog
