Another example model for you to test (Inspired by Tim Meador's post on the Grasshopper Forum). I've been enabling nurbs profile/perimeter exchange using the IFC2x4 format (status Candidate Release, anticipated to be approved late this year).
Here's the example Grasshopper model, and the IFC file. You need to right click on the SSIBake component and check the IFC2x4 option. This should be sticky then for the model (I need to check why it sometimes reverts when reopening the model).
Note I'm yet to find other viewers/software that can interact with this version of IFC, so for the time being it's only useful for my Rhino/Revit developments. I'm still implementing other aspects of IFC2x4 (which might still have subtle changes), so be careful as exported file might not always open in the future. I'm presently implementing advanced breps, that should permit much smaller IFC file sizes (and avoid the implications of meshing objects). Look forward to hearing comments and suggestions.
