Public Types

enum Value

This enumeration is used to identify the primary purpose of a pipe fitting. This is a very basic categorization mechanism to generically identify the pipe fitting type. Subcategories of pipe fittings are not enumerated. The IfcpipeFittingTypeEnum contains the following:

BEND: A fitting with typically two ports used to change the direction of flow between connected elements. CONNECTOR: Connector fitting, typically used to join two ports together within a flow distribution system (e.g., a coupling used to join two pipe segments). ENTRY: Entry fitting, typically unconnected at one port and connected to a flow distribution system at the other (e.g., a breeching inlet). EXIT: Exit fitting, typically unconnected at one port and connected to a flow distribution system at the other (e.g., a hose bibb). JUNCTION: A fitting with typically more than two ports used to redistribute flow among the ports and/or to change the direction of flow between connected elements (e.g, tee, cross, wye, etc.). OBSTRUCTION: A fitting with typically two ports used to obstruct or restrict flow between the connected elements (e.g., screen, perforated plate, etc.). TRANSITION: A fitting with typically two ports having different shapes or sizes. Can also be used to change the direction of flow between connected elements. USERDEFINED: User-defined fitting. NOTDEFINED: Undefined fitting.
