Multi-file loading and coloring sample

This report template is built to handle real projects with multiple IFC models (discipline splits, versions, or separate buildings) while keeping analysis fast and visual.

Use it as a starting point for quantity takeoff, model validation, and quick exploration of element properties across many files.

Main advantages

  • Folder loading (multiple files): Load many IFC files in one go instead of importing them one by one.
  • Subfolder loading: Keep a clean project structure and optionally include nested folders.
  • Advanced coloring sample: Use consistent coloring across the 3D model and your charts/tables to make patterns obvious.

What to try

  1. Filter by Filename to compare models side-by-side.
  2. Switch Color By to reveal patterns (types, files, or custom categories).
  3. Select elements in the 3D viewer and review their properties to validate data quality.
