Beam is not exporting

Hello, I have been trying to get a line of girders to show up on Bimsight. I created the .tbp files in Tekla Structures, and when I opened them up in Bimsight the girders were missing.. I went back to check everything on the Tekla end of things, and there were no issues there. So at this point I am just plain confused. Any ideas would be helpful! Thanks!

Hi Larry, The problem is either in the IFC exporter of Tekla Structures or in the IFC import plugin of Tekla BIMsight. Please try first to export your Tekla Structures model to IFC by using the Presentation view as an Export type to see if it’s making any difference. With that option the geometry of objects should be more accurately exported to IFC format. If that doesn't solve the issue I'll need the Tekla Structures model in order to investigate the issue further. I sent you email about this. Thanks, Heikki
