7.4.3.14 IfcDistributionBoardType

7.4.3.14.1 Semantic definition

The flow controller type IfcDistributionBoardType defines commonly shared information for occurrences of distribution boards. The set of shared information may include:

  • common properties with shared property sets
  • common representations
  • common materials
  • common composition of elements
  • common ports

It is used to define a distribution board type specification indicating the specific product information that is common to all occurrences of that product type. The IfcDistributionBoardType may be declared within IfcProject or IfcProjectLibrary using IfcRelDeclares and may be exchanged with or without occurrences of the type. Occurrences of IfcDistributionBoardType are represented by instances of IfcDistributionBoard. Refer to the documentation at IfcDistributionBoard for supported property sets, materials, composition, and ports.
