Ramana,

There is still work in progress on developing utilities for import of
IFC geometry, materials, and construction data into energy simulation.
To my knowledge, this work has not yet produced a robust utility for
this data exchange in the U.S. market.

There are tools currently available for data exchange between Autodesk,
and other vendor, CAD software and energy simulation tools (e.g., see
Green Building Studio at www.greenbuildingstudio.com).

Dear all,

What is the current situation on the Industry foundation classes (IFCs) of
International Alliance For Interoperability (IAI) with regards to building
energy and daylight simulation?
Also with regards to AutoCAD and Revit: with the CAD shifting to Revit, is
there interoperability between Revit and the simulation tools we use
everyday?

Any information is appreciated,
