Interactive Jupyter Notebooks to teach working with IFC files using ifcopenshell with python.

These Notebooks are part of mandatory classes for Bachelor students of Architecture at the RWTH Aachen University and have advanced versions for MSc levels. The notebooks usually run on the Jupyter Hub of the RWTH Aachen but can be run on other Jupyter Notebook VMs. They are published as Open Educational Resources

To run the notebooks interactively, click the binder link above, a few seconds patience and you will be able to enjoy:

  • Integrated IFC Viewer with bidirectional ability to
    • select from script, get selection from mouse to script
    • see attributes of building element instances
    • set visibility, colors and transparancy from script
  • display model structure using GraphViz Dot dot vizualization
  • Browse IFC 2x3 and IFC 4 documentation right in your notebook IfcHelp.getHelp3("IfcDoor") documentation in browser
  • use pandas, numpy etc. to do calculations on models
  • reach through to the powerfull OpenCascadeKernel
