IFC from Cadwork Lexocad to Forge - Multiple PropertySets and Attributes

When importing an IFC (2x3 and 4) from Cadwork Lexocad into Forge, several PropertySets and Attributes appear multiple times.

The same thing happens when I open the IFC in Navisworks with the Standard IFC Import settings. With conversion method: "modern" in navisworks, the PropertySets and Attributes look better, but the geometry gets kind of destroyed (large distance to origin). Besides that we would prefer to work with IFC in forge and not with NWD.

When opening the IFC in other Software, that problem does not appear.

I would be thankful for any hints.

This is my result in forge: Lexocad IFC to Forge

The Forge Model Derivative service uses Navisworks under the hood when translating IFC files, that would explain why the output you get in Forge Viewer looks the same as in Navisworks. You can try processing your IFC files with Revit instead, see if that would make any difference.
