7.4.4.37.3 Properties
| Name | Property Type | Data Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reference | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcIdentifier |
Reference ID for this specified type in this project (e.g. type 'A-1'), Also referred to as "construction type". It should be provided as an alternative to the name of the "object type", if the software does not support object types and no classification reference to a recognized classification system used. |
|
| Status | IfcPropertyEnumeratedValue | PEnum_ElementStatus |
Status of the element, predominately used in renovation or retrofitting projects. The status can be assigned to as "New" - element designed as new addition, "Existing" - element exists and remains, "Demolish" - element existed but is to be demolished, "Temporary" - element will exists only temporary (like a temporary support structure). |
|
| NumberOfGangs | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcCountMeasure |
Number of gangs in the object. Number of slots available for switches/outlets (most commonly 1, 2, 3, or 4). |
|
| ClearDepth | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcPositiveLengthMeasure |
The clear depth. It indicates the unobstructed depth available for cable inclusion within the junction box. |
|
| ShapeType | IfcPropertyEnumeratedValue | PEnum_JunctionBoxShapeType |
Shape of the junction box. |
|
| PlacingType | IfcPropertyEnumeratedValue | PEnum_JunctionBoxPlacingType |
Location at which the type of junction box can be located. |
|
| JunctionBoxMountingType | IfcPropertyEnumeratedValue | PEnum_JunctionBoxMountingType |
Method of mounting to be adopted for the type of junction box. |
|
| IsExternal | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcBoolean |
Indication whether the element is designed for use in the exterior (TRUE) or not (FALSE). If (TRUE) it is an external element and faces the outside of the building. |
|
| IP_Code | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcLabel |
IP Code, the International Protection Marking, IEC 60529), classifies and rates the degree of protection provided against intrusion. |
|
| NominalLength | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcNonNegativeLengthMeasure |
The nominal overall length of the object. The size information is provided in addition to the shape representation and the geometric parameters used within. In case of inconsistency between the geometric parameters and the size properties, provided in the attached property set, the geometric parameters take precedence. |
|
| NominalWidth | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcNonNegativeLengthMeasure |
The nominal overall width of the object. The size information is provided in addition to the shape representation and the geometric parameters used within. In cases of inconsistency between the geometric parameters and the size properties, provided in the attached property set, the geometric parameters take precedence. |
|
| NominalHeight | IfcPropertySingleValue | IfcNonNegativeLengthMeasure |
The nominal height of the object. The size information is provided in addition to the shape representation and the geometric parameters used within. In cases of inconsistency between the geometric parameters and the size properties, provided in the attached property set, the geometric parameters take precedence. |
