      Try viewing the file at...

      Link Preview Image
      Site not found Β· GitHub Pages

      favicon

      (ifcjs.github.io)

      If that fails try the free BlenderBIM addon

      https://blenderbim.org/

      ...then export to .dae

          I intalled the blenderplugin.
          It worked well with the smallest ifc file (582 kb)

          but the most important file is to huge, Blender is crashing (120 MB)

          I can open it in the viewer https://ifcjs.github.io/web-ifc-viewer/example/index

          but I can not convert it into another format.

          There ist a downloadbutton and a dropbox button but they do not work

          what can I do?

          can somebody convert for me?

              can I convert with it or only open it?

              opening works fine with the first one but I was not able to convert it.

                The first is a viewer only. It's to see if the file will actually open.

                The second allows you to convert. I was interested to see if the file itself would open elsewhere.

                    I'm out of options I'm afraid.

                    Ask your client to export to a different format. IFC can be hit or miss because its not just mesh data and that is likely all you need.
