#37=IFCCONNECTEDFACESET((#49,#56,#63,#70,#77,#84,#91,#98,#105,#112,#119,#126,#133,#140,#147,#154,#161,#168,#175,#182,#189,#196,#203,#210));
So, either the instance is indeed invalid, or the Data Interoperability cannot interpret it correctly.
If this might be of interest, opening the IFC with Civil 3D I can see the model without problem.
Some specs:
- Data Interoperability (and Pro) version is 2.2

The Quick Import settings: the same as explained in a 2016 Esri post (unfortunately I cannot find the link, but only
