Description

We have a requirement from a customer where a client is requesting all parts of a steel connection to be exporting as IfcMember. It seems we cannot currently override the class for a Revit plate and it's always exported as an IfcPlate.
Question: Does anyone have similar requirements? From your point of view, does it make sense to export Revit Plates as IfcMember?
