How to REMOVE Geometry from IFC file. (only keep Attributes without loosing ANY)?

Here is FME workbench 

I tried using Geometry remover but still getting those extra properties from original 

My purpose is just to remove geometry and let all other things as its things remain same. I don’t wish to alter any properties.

If this work i would like to process IFC in bulk removing ONLY geometry . Highly appreciate with any help.

The other issue when removing geometry is MISSING Data as well :( .Can’t understand why FME cannot do simple jobs also or i may be my workflow is not right .

I have managed to remove Geometry and able to extract ONLY attribute, for some reason am missing …….IfcGrid (Element)

I might be missing out some transformer or flow . Its FME 2026.1 , any guess how to get IfcGrid ?

​@danilo_fme , ​@redgeographics , ​@david_r , any support please . 

I’m not an IFC expert at all, but they are basically just text files. Perhaps there is a way to use regular expressions or similar to text file mechanisms to remove the geometries?

Hi ​@vimva679,

When using the original IFC reader/writer, the Property Sets are stored as part of the geometry, so removing the geometry will remove them as well.

Instead, please use a GeometryPartExtractor to remove the Body and Axis geometry representations from the feature geometries. This will preserve the Property Sets when writing.

Please see the attached updated workspace to illustrate.
