6.1.3.25 IfcRampFlight

6.1.3.25.1 Semantic definition

A ramp comprises a single inclined segment, or several inclined segments that are connected by a horizontal segment, referred to as a landing. A ramp flight is the single inclined segment and part of the ramp construction. In case of single flight ramps, the ramp flight and the ramp are identical.

An IfcRampFlight is an aggregated part of an IfcRamp realized through the IfcRelAggregates relationship, the ramp flight is therefore included in the set of IfcRelAggregates.RelatedObjects.

An IfcRampFlight connects the floor slab of zero to two different storeys (or partial storeys or landings) within a building. The connection relationship between the IfcRampFlight and the IfcSlab can be expressed using the IfcRelConnectsElements relationship.

An attribute Name and optionally Description can be used for all subypes of IfcObject. For those subtypes, that have an object type definition, such as IfcBeam - IfcBeamType, the common Name and optionally Description is associated with the object type.

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.
