Researchers have developed IfcLLM, a novel framework designed to make Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) data more accessible through natural language queries. The system converts IFC models into both relational and graph representations, allowing for structured property and topological relationship analysis. By integrating these representations with iterative Large Language Model (LLM) reasoning, IfcLLM achieved high accuracy in querying BIM models, demonstrating its potential for routine analysis in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction industry.
