class Ifc4x2::IfcBuildingElementProxyType : public Ifc4x2::IfcBuildingElementType

Definition from IAI: TheIfcBuildingElementProxyType defines a list of commonly shared property set definitions of a building element proxy and an optional set of product representations. It is used to define an element specification (i.e. the specific product information, that is common to all occurrences of that product type).

NOTE The product representations are defined as representation maps (at the level of the supertype IfcTypeProduct, which gets assigned by an element occurrence instance through the IfcShapeRepresentation.Item[1] being an IfcMappedItem.

A building element proxy type is used to define the common properties of a certain type of a building element proxy that may be applied to many instances of thattype to assign a specific style. Building element proxy typesmay be exchanged without being already assigned to occurrences.

NOTE Although an building element proxy does not have a predefined ontological meaning the provision of a type may be helpful in sharing information among multiple occurrences. Applications that provide type information for element types not yet included in the current IFC specification can use the IfcBuildingElementProxyType to exchange such types.

The occurrences of the IfcBuildingElementProxyType are represented by instances of IfcBuildingElementProxy.

HISTORY New entity in Release IFC2x Edition 3.
