7.5.3.59.4 Formal propositions

Name Description
CorrectPredefinedType

Either the PredefinedType attribute is unset (e.g. because an IfcTubeBundleType is associated), or the inherited attribute ObjectType shall be provided, if the PredefinedType is set to USERDEFINED.

NOT(EXISTS(PredefinedType)) OR
(PredefinedType <> IfcTubeBundleTypeEnum.USERDEFINED) OR
((PredefinedType = IfcTubeBundleTypeEnum.USERDEFINED) AND EXISTS (SELF\IfcObject.ObjectType))
CorrectTypeAssigned

Either there is no tube bundle type object associated, i.e. the IsTypedBy inverse relationship is not provided, or the associated type object has to be of type IfcTubeBundleType.

(SIZEOF(IsTypedBy) = 0) OR
('IFC4X3_DEV_738df036.IFCTUBEBUNDLETYPE' IN TYPEOF(SELF\IfcObject.IsTypedBy[1].RelatingType))

Last change: Improve definition split (#876) * bring back headers headers were previously removed by mistake, now bringing them back * add new lines and rename the tag add the word 'short' in it * unify newlines make exactly one newline before and two after the tag * resolving typos Because bringing back headers required to go back in time to previous version, I'm now re-resolving the issues: #861, #860, #856 by ArturTomczak on 7/16/2024, 2:07:28 PM
