There are multiple options to import BIM data in ArcGIS Pro. Here we describe one of the options by first making use of ArcMap and the Data Interoperability extension to prepare and convert the BIM data to another 3D format and then importing this dataset in ArcGIS Pro.

How to prepare BIM data to import in ArcGIS Pro:
  1. Open ArcMap and make sure the Data Interoperability Extension is turned on
  2. Add a new interoperability connection and choose as format IFC.
  3. When the connection is established, add the data to the map.
  4. Then open the Quick Export tool and choose as format 3DS. As input choose only the Multipatch layers.
  5. In the parameters panel,uncheck the two sided meshes option. Then run the tool.
  6. Follow the steps here to import the output in ArcGIS Pro: How to import other 3D formats in ArcGIS Pro.
