IFCs and Grasshopper Conversion to Revit

I am looking into the use of Geometry Gym plugins to exchange IFC data between the software packages and how this will effect the design process. In terms of interoperability between the software packages and data exchange quality.To do this I need people to provide me with some background information of uses of Grasshopper and BIM software such as Revit in my survey located at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GrasshoppervBIM for my…See More

"Any replies would help and by construction companies I mean any discipline who works on the construction project, but the main focus would be towards the design. So the ideal participants are architectural firms and consultant firms. The survey…"

Dear all,I am a Loughborough University Student doing a final year project on BIM and Grasshopper use in construction and looking at the crossovers and potentially solving the interoperability problem.I am in need of companies within the UK who use Grasshopper in construction projects, be it only in the design, documentation or using the geometry gym plug-in to take part in a short questionnaire and possibly a follow up interview if it can be arranged.I have found a few companies who have used…See More
