This enumeration defines the basic ways to describe how an IfcDoor or IfcDoorType operate, as shown in the figures below. It combines the partitioning of the access barrier into single or multiple panels and the operation types of those panels.
In the most common case of swinging doors the IfcDoorTypeOperationEnum defined the hinge side (left hung or right hung) and the opening direction (opening to the left, opening to the right). Whether the door opens inwards or outwards is determined by the local coordinate system of the IfcDoor
Note that:
Figures are shown in the ground view.
Figures (symbolic representation) depend on the national building code.
These figures/ are only shown as illustrations, the actual representation in the ground view might differ.
Open to the outside is declared as open into the direction of the positive y-axis, determined by the ObjectPlacement at IfcDoor
The location of the panel relative to the wall thickness is defined by theย ObjectPlacement at IfcDoor, and the IfcDoorLiningProperties.LiningOffset parameter.

USERDEFINED
User defined operation type.
NOTDEFINED
A door with a not defined operation type is considered as a door with a lining, but no panels. It is thereby always open.
