Can you expand on point 2? By layering do you mean the order in which surfaces are rendered? That will be a real challenge I would think. Or do you just mean the layer names - If so you should be able to set up a dynamic workflow to handle the layer/schema definitions.
For point one - FME sometimes has issues reading IFC files - It actually occurs when the CSG Geometries get Evaluated. When reading native Revit files there isn't an issue.
Another issue can occur if using geometry tools which have a low tolerance (E.g., trying to repair some self intersections).
Good luck!

Hello ! Yes I just mean to:
- Retain the layering of the model that is in the original Revit file. This layer should be nested and retain colour / layer names when transferred to GDB.
- Also it would also be necessary to find out how to build the layering information from grasshopper + geometry gym, based on existing rhino's layer structure, so that it gets read correctly in FME.
For point 1 - would it be possible to filter these elements that cannot be read , or does it get stuck in the reader component?
