Dear community!

I'm writing because I've modeled reinforcement in a concrete model, and I've used different techniques. For eg. I modelled 4 longitudinal bars as a group in Tekla Structures. When I export it to Trimble Connect in IFC format I am only given the weight of a single bar, even when the selector includes the whole group. 

In the image you'll find the 16mm diameter bars, 1400mm length. Each bar weighs 2.2 kg and you can see in the properties catalog, that the single and total weight equals 2.2kg.

I've exported with XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBARSET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS  = TRUE (also tried with false)..

I also tried turning off the assembly selector and I got the same result.

Any idea will be happily welcome! Thank you
