The BIMcollab example project consists of nine IFC models. Each model belongs to a different discipline and has been exported from a variety of BIM applications demonstrating the versatility of an openBIM workflow.
The BIMcollab example project can be found in the following folders after installing BIMcollab Zoom:

The example IFC and BCP files can also be downloaded here.
To open the example project, click on the Open file button, navigate to the folder and the language of your choice, and select BIMcollab Example Project.bcp .
Models with a yellow folder icon have been loaded and can be seen in the 3D view.
