6.1.3.12 IfcCovering
6.1.3.12.1 Semantic definition
A covering is an element which covers some part of another element and is fully dependent on that other element. The IfcCovering defines the occurrence of a covering type, that (if given) is expressed by the IfcCoveringType.
Coverings are elements with relationships to the covered element and the space on the other side, they may contain openings, assigned by IfcRelVoidsElement, material information, assigned by IfcRelAssociatesMaterial, and others.
Coverings can be assigned to
- a space represented by IfcSpace
- using the inverse relationship CoversSpaces pointing to IfcRelCoversSpaces. The space is then accessible via IfcRelCoversSpaces.RelatedSpace. It defines to which space a covering is facing towards.
- a space boundary represented by IfcRelSpaceBoundary
- using the inverse relationship ProvidesBoundaries pointing to IfcRelSpaceBoundary. The space is then accessible via IfcRelSpaceBoundary.RelatingSpace.
- a built element represented by IfcBuiltElement
- using the inverse relationship Covers pointing to IfcRelCoversBldgElements. The building element is then accessible via IfcRelCoversBldgElements.RelatingBuildingElement.
The following guideline shall apply:
- (default) if the space has coverings that may not have their own shape representation and no defined relationships to the building elements they cover, then the IfcCovering shall be assigned to IfcSpace using the IfcRelCoversSpaces relationship,
- if the space has coverings that have an own shape representation and the space has defined space boundaries, then the covering, which relates to that space, shall be contained in the space using IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure. It may be assigned to the space boundaries using the IfcRelSpaceBoundary.
- if the covering does not relate to a space, then the covering should be assigned to the building element or a distribution element using the IfcRelCoversBldgElements relationship.

Object Typing | General |
Any object occurrence can be typed by being assigned to a common object type utilizing this concept.

This concept can be applied to the following resources: |
|

|
Property Sets with Override | General |
Any object occurrence can hold property sets, either directly at the object occurrence as element specific property sets, or at the object type, as type property sets. In this case, the properties that are provided to the object occurrence are the combinations of element specific and type properties. In case that the same property (within the same property set) is defined both in occurrence and type properties, the property value of the occurrence property overrides the property value of the type property. |
