connecting Revit BIM to Openlca

Question

Hello,

I am planning to develop a methodology to connect OpenLCA with Revit BIM. I was wondering if it is possible.

Best Regards,

Hi Mina,

interesting, we have done this to some extent in the infinite project (https://www.greendelta.com/project/infinite/). Do you think of a full plugin or rather a test case?

All the best,

Andreas

Hi,

Thank you for getting back to me. I am planning to write a thesis on this subject. If it is possible to be full plugin which can generate all the phases of a building, that would be great. I will go trough the link that you send me.
My plan is generate a platform that extract data from Revit and import it in  OpenLCA and then with its help you can decide which material is more environmental friendly. And then choose the best material and design and export it to Revit. But I am not sure if it s possible.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Mina
