[IFC] Best Ifc Class for finish floor and finish ceiling

  1. M by Massimo on 18 Nov 2022, edited 18 Nov 2022 #

    Hello, i was wondering which are the suited IfcClasses for finish floor and finish ceiling.

    In particular, i'm referring to the IfcSpace IFC4 defined here.

    Looking at the following image

    which are the suited IfcClass to assign to the objects representing the finish floor and the finish ceiling?

    I needed it because in the Qto_SpaceBaseQuantities there are quantities that are related to those objects so it could be useful to know which are the correct IfcClasses to assign to those objects.

    Also, if there was correct ifc files to refer to it would be helpful to share :-)

    Thanks,

    Massimo

    Thanks @theoryshaw , IfcCovering seems correct! :-)

    Looking at this page:

    EXAMPLE Coverings include wall claddings, floorings, suspended ceilings, moldings and skirting boards.

    Could you point me a correct ifc file that i can refer to?

    np, this is a pretty useful tool https://blenderbim.org/search-ifc-class.html

    also, i believe, thanks to @Gorgious, this api search is available in BB as well.
