IFC Model Health Checker | FreeBIMTools

Most problems that derail a model exchange are invisible in a 3D view. The geometry looks right, so the file looks right, and the trouble only surfaces when somebody tries to filter by level, schedule by property, or track an issue between revisions.

The checks here target that gap. Missing or duplicated GlobalIds break issue tracking. Elements outside the spatial hierarchy vanish from level filters while still appearing in 3D. Empty property sets mean the data everyone downstream expects was never exported. A model made mostly of IfcBuildingElementProxy tells the receiving tool almost nothing about what anything is.

What this is not deserves saying plainly. These are technical observations about the data in a file. They are not a certification, and they do not test compliance with ISO 19650, a BIM execution plan or a client’s information requirements, because none of those are implemented here. A model can score well and still be wrong for its project.

Checks are defined as data rather than wired into this page, so company rules, naming conventions and IDS-driven checks can be added later without rebuilding the report.
