+        Revit has a bug (see https://github.com/Autodesk/revit-ifc/issues/486)
+        where it always inserts a Uniformat classification regardless if your
+        project needs it or not. This patch removes it.

+        Example:
+
+        .. code:: python
+
+            ifcpatch.execute({"input": model, "recipe": "RemoveRevitUniformatClassification"})
+        """
