Research direction

Reproduce the IFC export with Revit 2024.3.x and IFC for Revit 24.3.2 using Length values of 1905mm, 3810mm, and 7620mm, then inspect the generated IFC property values shown in the report. Done means those three values export as their correct lengths rather than the incorrect IFCLENGTHMEASURE values listed.
