Changelog: IFC Models, Special Conditions and more reporting options 🚀

Hey @Community!

We’re back with a brand new batch of powerful features, smarter documentation tools, and more community-driven fixes. Let’s dive in:

:building_construction: Upload IFC Models — Automatically Extract Quantities

This is a huge milestone for us—and for you.

You can now upload IFC models directly to the platform and automatically extract material quantities.

No manual input. No guessing. Just seamless BIM-to-LCA integration.

:pushpin: Supported alongside Revit, Rhino, and Archicad via Speckle Nextgen


:denmark: Special Conditions for BR18 2025 Projects

We’ve introduced a new option to enable Special Conditions for Danish projects using the BR18 2025 calculation type.

This helps better reflect realistic emissions—especially in cases where construction needs are higher, such as:

  • Pile foundations near harbors

  • Challenging ground conditions

  • Special-use buildings

You can filter those types that have special conditions applied.

Making it easier to comply without compromising project integrity.


:page_facing_up: New DGNB Conformity Check Report

Danish projects targeting DGNB certification can now generate a dedicated Conformity Check Report.

Perfect for documentation, transparency, and certification workflows.


:brick: 3D Viewer Upgrades — Now with Views & Sections

We’re continuing to evolve the 3D Viewer:

  • View Modes: Switch between different visual perspectives.

  • Section Tool: Slice through your building to reveal internal structures and material layers.

More tools, better understanding, smarter design.


:puzzle_piece: New Features & Improvements

  • New Legislation section in the Project Info carousel: Easy access to legal information

  • EPD Search by Declaration Number: Find what you need, faster.

  • Excel Upload Improvements: Now with clear error handling and user feedback if something goes wrong.

  • Irish Green Building Council (IGBC): Generic data now included and available in the platform.

  • Wall Length Calculation: Support of length calculation for walls with multiple material layers.

:bug: Bug Fixes

  • Safari Dropdown Styling: No more weird-looking menus.

That’s all for now—but there’s more to come. We’re building faster, smarter, and greener—with your help.

:open_mailbox_with_raised_flag: Keep the EPD requests and feature suggestions coming in the community!
