StructBOQ

StructBOQ — IFC Validation System

StructBOQ is not a BOQ generator. It is a quality gate between your model and downstream engineering decisions. It reads your IFC file directly — Revit, ArchiCAD, Tekla, Allplan — and audits every element for classification errors, unit inconsistencies, volume anomalies, and quantity source failures before generating a validated BOQ. Supports IFC2x3, IFC4, IFC4x3.

Watch Demo
What to watch for
  • How the pipeline distinguishes IfcQuantityVolume from geometric fallback — and when each is used
  • Where misclassified elements are caught before quantities are committed to the BOQ
  • The final Excel structure: element list, audit flags, and summary sheet in one file
Runtime ~1 min Unedited walkthrough
IFC versions IFC4 + IFC2X3 Both schemas validated
Output Excel BOQ Audit trail included
Setup required Zero Upload, receive report

StructBOQ investigates IFC semantic reliability, quantity traceability, and model assurance across open BIM workflows.

What Gets Validated
  • Element classification — footings, slabs, columns, beams, proxies
  • Quantity source — BaseQuantities, Pset, or geometric fallback per element
  • Unit consistency — cm², mm², m² conversion traps across all software
  • Reinforcement extraction — bar geometry, designation lookup, ratio fallback
  • Semantic anomalies — GrossVolume corruption, void relationships, composite assemblies
Validation Accuracy Cross-checked against raw IFC data in Bonsai / BlenderBIM across three software platforms.
