BIM Validation Report Generator

Rule-based quality checks on BIM element data that produce a multi-sheet Excel validation report.

Data & AnalyticsIntermediate★ 336⑂ 83AI score 7/10Last updated: Aug 22, 2026

What it does

  • Takes a BIM element table (Excel/CSV → pandas DataFrame) and checks it against built-in validation rules.
  • Ships 7 default rules covering required properties (name, level, material), naming conventions (special characters, length), classification codes, and geometry (zero volume, invalid bounding box).
  • Classifies findings as ERROR / WARNING / INFO and derives an overall status: PASSED, PASSED_WITH_WARNINGS, or FAILED.
  • Exports an Excel report with Summary, Issues, and By Category sheets.
  • Lets you register project-specific rules via add_custom_rule().

Who it's for

  • BIM managers and coordinators doing manual model QC on Revit/IFC data
  • Design and construction teams checking data quality against ISO 19650 / buildingSMART IDS
  • Data engineers building construction data pipelines in Python

Example uses

  1. Read bim_elements.xlsx and generate a report for "Office Tower / Architectural Model v3.2", printing error and warning counts.
  2. Add a CUSTOM-001 rule requiring fire_rating on Walls and Doors, then re-run validation.
  3. Use it as an automated QC gate: if status is FAILED, trigger a notification in your pipeline.

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the 1_DDC_Toolkit/BIM-Analysis/bim-validation-report folder from the GitHub repo datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction into my ~/.claude/skills/bim-validation-report/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction/1_DDC_Toolkit/BIM-Analysis/bim-validation-report ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/datadrivenconstruction/DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r DDC_Skills_for_AI_Agents_in_Construction/1_DDC_Toolkit/BIM-Analysis/bim-validation-report ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Install Python dependencies: pip install pandas openpyxl
  6. Restart Claude Code and ask something like "generate a BIM model validation report".
  7. Make sure your input columns match what the code expects (element_id, name, category, level, material, volume, min_x … max_z).
