  • When you edit the IFC rule, use either the detailed physical aspect of the geometry, or the simple and detailed physical aspects of the geometry.

  • In the IFC rule, enable only the simple and detailed physical aspects interference checking for the required objects. Enabling the IFC with both aspects for all objects might slow down the clash detection.

  1. Locate the Sample.CodelessIFCRules.config file. The configuration file is available in the [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Xml\Interference folder.

  2. Make a copy of the Sample.CodelessIFCRules.config file, and rename [YourModelName].CodelessIFCRules.config.

  3. In the [YourModelName].CodelessIFCRules.config file, comment lines 3 and 8.

  4. Uncomment lines 7 and 12.

  5. If necessary, add the required object types to the ByObjectType List.

  6. In Project Management, click Stop on the IFC Database Detect tab, and wait until the process finishes.

  7. Navigate to [Product Folder]\CatalogData\BulkLoad\DataFiles, and open IFCRule.xls.

  8. In the IFCPostProcessorRule worksheet on line 6, column A, replace the exclamation point (!) with the letter M.

    The RuleProgID column in line 6 displays InterferenceRules.CodelessIFC.

  9. Bulkload the [Product Folder]\CatalogData\BulkLoad\DataFiles\IFCRule.xls file in AMD mode to set your model to use the customized CodelessIFCRules functionality.
