Description
When three walls and a door intersect (as shown below) the IFC file is then missing geometry at the meeting point.
The intersection in Revit floor plan view.

The intersection in Revit 3D view.

When viewed in Xbim Xplorer the wall in which the door sits is missing geometry between the void and the end of the wall.

When viewed in Open IFC Viewer the wall geometry has the same issue.

If the door is removed, the wall is fine.

The Revit file and IFC can be downloaded here.

Is there any available fix for this issue?

Research direction
Download the linked Revit file and IFC, reproduce the intersection in Xbim Xplorer or Open IFC Viewer, and compare it with the version where the door is removed. Trace the wall and door geometry handling in the repository to identify why the wall segment is missing; done means the IFC retains the full wall geometry at the intersection.
