Description

Methods

Protected function WantsGlobalId: Boolean; virtual;

If True, instances of this class will have GlobalId auto-assigned at saving, and they will be saved as part of the "data" list in IFC JSON files.

Strictly following the spec, this should be only defined for TIfcRoot, because only IfcRoot has GlobalId. In reality, we need GlobalId at TIfcPersistent to load some files, and we sometimes need WantsGlobalId = True to save some files.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_types.inc (line 52).

Protected class function IfcClassName: String; virtual;

Name for the IFC standard, used in IFC files. By default, this is just ClassName with prefix 'T' removed.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_types.inc (line 56).

Protected function WantsGlobalId: Boolean; override;

This item has no description. Showing description inherited from TIfcPersistent.WantsGlobalId.

Published procedure AddIsDecomposedBy(const ChildObject: TIfcObjectDefinition);

Add given TIfcObjectDefinition instance to the IsDecomposedBy list of this object. Adds also new intermediate TIfcRelAggregates instance.

This shall be used to add top-level IfcSpatialStructureElement instances to the project, e.g.:

  • TIfcSite instance inside IfcProject,

  • IfcBuilding instance inside TIfcSite,

  • IfcBuildingStorey instance inside IfcBuilding

Public procedure AddMeshRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Coordinates: array of TVector3; const Indexes: array of Integer; const Solid: Boolean = true);

Add mesh representation to the given product.

The mesh is expressed as a set of 3D points (Coordinates) and indexes to these coordinates (Indexes) that determine polygons. The indexes are 0-based and can be separated by -1 to delimit polygons.

See examples/ifc/ for an example usage of this routine to define walls and floors.

Parameters
Context
Geometric representation context instance, usually TIfcProject.ModelContext (for 3D models) or TIfcProject.PlanContext (for 2D floor plans).

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3001).

Public procedure AddPolylineRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Coordinates: array of TVector3);

Add representation as a polyline to the given product. The sequence of points in Coordinates defines a polyline, so it starts from the first point and goes through each subsequent point in order.

Parameters
Context
Geometric representation context instance, usually TIfcProject.ModelContext (for 3D models) or TIfcProject.PlanContext (for 2D floor plans).

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3015).

Public procedure AddLinesRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Coordinates: array of TVector3);

Add representation as a set of line segments to the given product. Each pair of points in Coordinates defines a line segment.

Parameters
Context
Geometric representation context instance, usually TIfcProject.ModelContext (for 3D models) or TIfcProject.PlanContext (for 2D floor plans).

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3026).

Public procedure AddBoxRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Box: TBox3D);

Add box representation to the given product.

Right now, the Box is transformed into a proper mesh representation, so this is just equivalent to calling AddMeshRepresentation with the 8 box corners and proper indexes to define 6 box sides.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3035).

Public function TransformSupported: Boolean;

Does ObjectPlacement express a 3D transformation we can handle and Translation reliably gets and sets it.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3041).

Public procedure SetTransformRelativeTo(const OtherProduct: TIfcProduct);

Make Translation of this product relative to a given different product. This sets TIfcObjectPlacement.PlacementRelTo underneath.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3082).

Public constructor Create(AOwner: TComponent); override;

This item has no description.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3690).

Public destructor Destroy; override;

This item has no description.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3691).

Public function BuildNode(const Mapping: TCastleIfcMapping): TTransformNode; override;

This item has no description.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3692).

Public procedure AddOpening(const Opening: TIfcFeatureElementSubtraction);

Add an opening that creates a hole (or just niche) in this element. You can add any TIfcFeatureElementSubtraction, but typically you will add TIfcOpeningElement. This automatically creates TIfcRelVoidsElement relationship between this element and the opening.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3699).

Public procedure AddConnected(const Connected: TIfcElement);

Add a connected element, e.g. window should be connected to the wall. This adds TIfcRelConnectsElements relationship and extends the ConnectedTo, ConnectedFrom lists.

Spec of https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcWall.htm says: " Walls with openings that have already been modeled within the enclosing geometry may use the relationship IfcRelConnectsElements to associate the wall with embedded elements such as doors and windows."

The connected element is not rendered just because it is connected. It should still be also added using e.g. TIfcSpatialElement.AddContainedElement to be rendered.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3713).

Properties

Published property GlobalId: String read FGlobalId write FGlobalId;

Globally unique identifier for the object instance.

Note: Not declared as TGUID, because TGUID cannot be published, but also we don't really need it: for our purposes, this identifier is just an arbitrary string.

Note: IFC 4.3 specification puts this only at IfcRoot, not at every IFC class. But testcase https://github.com/buildingsmart-community/Community-Sample-Test-Files/blob/main/IFC%204.0.2.1%20(IFC%204)/ISO%20Spec%20archive/wall-with-opening-and-window.json (from IFC 4.0) shows this can be present at any IFC class, in particular TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext.

In fact, TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext needs to have GlobalId to be successfully saved (avoid recursively trying to serialize it) in some cases. We indicate such classes with WantsGlobalId.

IFC JSON documentation says this, which seems to (unfortunately it is not unambiguous enough...) allow this at any IFC class: "Whereas the globalId attribute is only available to those elements that are descendent of the IfcRoot entity in the EXPRESS schema, we encourage a broader use of this globalId, to enable referencing between objects in a JSON file when useful.".

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 1935).

Public property Translation: TVector3 read GetTranslation write SetTranslation;

Translation of this product.

  • Using this property when TransformSupported is True is most intuitive. It can then reliably get and set 3D translation. The translation is relative to the parent or to other object (determined by TIfcObjectPlacement.PlacementRelTo, can be set using SetTransformRelativeTo.)

  • Using this property when TransformSupported is False is still possible.

    The interpretation depends on the configuration of the ObjectPlacement. E.g. it may specify that it's a 2D transformation (so setting a translation may change it to 3D, and right now it may not preserve 2D rotation). In general, IFC offers various possibilities to define the placement of an object, relative to various parents.

    If in doubt, just don't use this property when TransformSupported is False. Instead, in that case (TransformSupported = False), investigate and change the ObjectPlacement properties.

When TCastleIfcMapping.OptimizeAssumingOneMapping then this is optimized. Changing this property immediately updates the relevant X3D graph, without the need to call TCastleIfcMapping.Update. This makes changing translation really instant, no need to call TCastleIfcMapping.Update so it doesn't analyze what changed.
