BIM-XtrAct

BIM-XtrAct is a professional utility for Architects, Engineers, and Construction (AEC) teams to visualize, merge, extract, and normalize data from IFC models—without requiring expensive BIM authoring software.

Load and federate multiple IFC2x3 or IFC4 files into a single unified workspace. With the integrated interactive 3D Viewer, you can visually explore your models, isolate specific elements, take measurements, and slice through geometry using advanced section boxes and dynamic section planes. Automatically discover available element types, property sets (Psets), and quantities, then build export templates that produce clean, structured Excel reports for scheduling, cost estimation, QA/QC, or facility management.

Key capabilities include:

Interactive 3D Viewer: Visually navigate your models using an intuitive navigation cube, apply section boxes, set precision section planes with arrow-key controls, measure distances, and click elements to instantly inspect their properties.
Model Merging (Federation): Combine multiple IFC files into a single coordinated 3D scene and unified dataset to extract consolidated, cross-disciplinary reports.

Universal IFC Parsing: Broad compatibility with standard IFC2x3 and IFC4 files.
Intelligent Data Discovery: Searchable catalog of elements, Psets, and quantities pulled directly from the model data.
Drag-and-Drop Template Builder: Define custom Excel columns and save standardized report layouts for reuse.
Smart Unit Conversion: Easily switch between Metric and Imperial formats, including architectural fractional feet/inches.
Real-Time Preview: Verify extracted values, selections, and formatting before hitting export.

One-Click Export: Generate clean, ready-to-use .xlsx spreadsheets instantly.
Local-Only Processing: Complete privacy and security—your IFC files and extracted data stay entirely on your local machine.
BIM-XtrAct focuses on turning complex IFC content into actionable information—making it visually accessible, fast, consistent, and ready for your downstream workflows.
