ISO 16739 (IFC) Industry Foundation Classes for data sharing in construction

IFC is the open, vendor-neutral data model for exchanging building information. Tekla Structures and most BIM tools export IFC, which is what PEB Studio reads.

CodeISO 16739 (IFC)Issued byISO / buildingSMART InternationalFieldBIM data exchange

What it covers

Objects (beams, columns, plates, fasteners, grids…), their geometry, properties and relationships.
Versions IFC2x3 and IFC4 are the most widely used.

Key points for fabricators

Assemblies, part marks and materials must be filled correctly in the authoring tool – IFC carries what the model contains.
Welds are not usually exported as objects.

How PEB Studio supports it

IFC import builds the BOM, 3D, weld detection, grids and component identities; a new IFC revision keeps PCIDs and installation data.

This page is a summary for orientation. Always work from the edition of the standard named in the project specification.
