IfcDoor

Semantic definitions at the entity

Entity definition

The door is a building element that is predominately used to provide controlled access for people and goods. It includes constructions with hinged, pivoted, sliding, and additionally revolving and folding operations. A door consists of a lining and one or several panels.

NOTE Definition according to ISO 6707-1: construction for closing an opening, intended primarily for access with hinged, pivoted or sliding operation.

The IfcDoor defines a particular occurrence of a door inserted in the spatial context of a project. A door can:

be inserted as a filler in an opening using the IfcRelFillsElement relationship, then the IfcDoor has an inverse attribute FillsVoids provided;
NOTE View definitions or implementer agreements may restrict the relationship to only include one door into one opening
be part of an element assembly, in general an IfcCurtainWall, using the IfcRelAggregates relationship, then the IfcDoor has an inverse attribute Decomposes is provided;
be a "free standing" door, then the IfcDoor has no inverse attributes FillsVoids or Decomposes provided.

This specification provides two entities for door occurrences:

IfcDoorStandardCase used for all occurrences of doors, that have a 'Profile' shape representation defined to which a set of shape parameters for lining and framing properties apply. Additionally it requires the provision of an IfcDoorType that references one IfcDoorLiningProperties and on to many IfcDoorPanelProperties;
NOTE see IfcDoorStandardCase for all specific constraints imposed by this subtype.
IfcDoor used for all other occurrences of doors, particularly for doors having only 'Brep', or 'SurfaceModel' geometry without applying shape parameters.

The actual parameters of the door and/or its shape are defined by the IfcDoor as the occurrence definition (or project instance), or by the IfcDoorType as the specific definition (or project type). The following parameters are given:

at the IfcDoor or IfcDoorStandardCase for occurrence specific parameters. The IfcDoor specifies:
- the door width and height
- the door opening direction (by the y-axis of the ObjectPlacement)
at the IfcDoorType, to which the IfcDoor is related by the inverse relationship IsTypedBy pointing to IfcRelDefinesByType, for type parameters common to all occurrences of the same type.
- the operation type (single swing, double swing, revolving, etc.)
- the door hinge side (by using two different styles for right and left opening doors)
- the construction material type
- the particular attributes for the lining by the IfcDoorLiningProperties
- the particular attributes for the panels by the IfcDoorPanelProperties

HISTORY New entity in IFC1.0.

IFC4 CHANGE The attributes PredefinedType and OperationType are added, the applicable type object has been changed to IfcDoorType.

The geometric representation of IfcDoor is given by the IfcProductDefinitionShape, allowing multiple geometric representations. The IfcDoor may get its parameter and shape from the IfcDoorType. If an IfcRepresentationMap (a block definition) is defined for the IfcDoorType, then the IfcDoor inserts it through the IfcMappedItem.

The geometric representation of IfcDoor is defined using the following (potentially multiple) IfcShapeRepresentation's for its IfcProductDefinitionShape:

Profile: A 'Curve3D' consisting of a single losed curve defining the outer boundary of the door (lining). The door parametric representation uses this profile in order to apply the door lining and panel parameter. If not provided, the profile of the IfcOpeningElement is taken.
FootPrint: A 'GeometricCurveSet', or 'Annotation2D' representation defining the 2D shape of the door
Body: A 'SweptSolid', 'SurfaceModel', or 'Brep' representation defining the 3D shape of the door.

In addition the parametric representation of a (limited) door shape is available by applying the parameters from IfcDoorType referencing IfcDoorLiningProperties and IfcDoorPanelProperties. The purpose of the parameter is described at those entities and below (door opening operation by door type).

The overall size of the IfcDoor to be used to apply the lining or panel parameter provided by the IfcDoorType is determined by the IfcShapeRepresentation with the RepresentationIdentifier = 'Profile'.

Concept usage

Door Attributes

The Door Attributes concept applies to this entity.

The opening direction is determined by the local placement of IfcDoor and the OperationType of the IfcDoorType as shown in Figure 209.

NOTE There are different definitions in various countries on what a left opening or left hung or left swing door is (same for right). Therefore the IFC definition may derivate from the local standard and need to be mapped appropriately.

Opening directions	Definitions	Reference to other standards
	The door panel (for swinging doors) opens always into the direction of the positive Y axis of the local placement. The determination of whether the door opens to the left or to the right is done at the level of the IfcDoorType. Here it is a left side opening door given by IfcDoorType.OperationType = SingleSwingLeft	refered to as LEFT HAND (LH) in US * refered to as DIN-R (right hung) in Germany
	If the door should open to the other side, then the local placement has to be changed. It is still a left side opening door, given by IfcDoorType.OperationType = SingleSwingLeft	refered to as RIGHT HAND REVERSE (RHR) in US * refered to as DIN-R (right hung) in Germany
	If the door panel (for swinging doors) opens to the right, a separate door style needs to be used (here IfcDoorTypee.OperationType = SingleSwingRight) and it always opens into the direction of the positive Y axis of the local placement.	refered to as RIGHT HAND (RH) in US * refered to as DIN-L (left hung) in Germany
	If the door panel (for swinging doors) opens to the right, and into the opposite directions, the local placement of the door need to change. The door style is given by IfcDoorType.OperationType = SingleSwingRight.	refered to as LEFT HAND REVERSE (LHR) in US * refered to as DIN-L (left hung) in Germany
* it assumes that the 'inside/private/primary' space is above (top in the pictures) and the 'outside/public/secondary' space is below (bottom in the pictures).

The material of the IfcDoor is defined by the IfcMaterialConstituentSet or as fall back by IfcMaterial and attached by the IfcRelAssociatesMaterial relationship.

Spatial Containment

The Spatial Containment concept applies to this entity as shown in Table 123.

Structure	Description
IfcBuildingStorey	Default spatial container
IfcBuilding	Spatial container for the element if it cannot be assigned to a building storey
IfcSite	Spatial container for the element in case that it is placed on site (outside of building)

Table 123 — IfcDoor Spatial Containment

The IfcDoor, as any subtype of IfcBuildingElement, may participate alternatively in one of the two different containment relationships:

the Spatial Containment (defined here), or
the Element Composition.

The IfcDoor may also be connected to the IfcOpeningElement in which it is placed as a filler. In this case, the spatial containment relationship shall be provided, see Figure 210.

	NOTE The containment shall be defined independently of the filling relationship, that is, even if the IfcDoor is a filling of an opening established by IfcRelFillsElement, it is also contained in the spatial structure by IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure.
Figure 210 — Door spatial containment

Product Local Placement

The Product Local Placement concept applies to this entity as shown in Table 124.

Type	Relative	Description
IfcLocalPlacement	IfcLocalPlacement	Relative placement according to position and rotation relative to container.

The PlacementRelTo relationship of IfcLocalPlacement shall point to the local placement of the same element (if given), in which the IfcDoor is used as a filling (normally an IfcOpeningElement), as provided by the IfcRelFillsElement relationship;
If the IfcDoor is part of an assembly, e.g. an IfcCurtainWall, then the PlacementRelTo relationship of IfcLocalPlacement shall point (if given) to the local placement of that assembly;
If the IfcDoor is not inserted into an IfcOpeningElement, then the PlacementRelTo relationship of IfcLocalPlacement shall point (if given) to the local placement of the same IfcSpatialStructureElement that is used in the ContainedInStructure inverse attribute or to a referenced spatial structure element at a higher level.

NOTE The product placement is used to determine the opening direction of the door.

Profile 3D Geometry

The Profile 3D Geometry concept applies to this entity.

The door profile is represented by a three-dimensional closed curve within a particular shape representation. The profile is used to apply the parameter of the parametric door representation. Only a single closed curve shall be contained in the set of IfcShapeRepresentation.Items.

A 'Profile' representation has to be provided if a parametric representation is applied to the door.
