IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveLengthMeasure

Overall height of this panel. Should be included for convinience use by applications that cannot derive this from the geometric representation.

PanelWidth

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveLengthMeasure

Overall width of this panel. Should be included for convinience use by applications that cannot derive this from the geometric representation.

StileDepth

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveLengthMeasure

Depth (dimension in plane perpendicular to glazing) of the stiles dividing any glass panes

StileThickness

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveLengthMeasure

Thickness (width in plane parallel to glazing) of the stiles dividing any glass panes

CrackLenght

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveLengthMeasure

Length of the joints of this window panel (usually the perimeter of the panel) that have to be considered for natural ventilation and heat losses.

InfiltrationCoefficient

IfcSimplePropertyWithUnit

IfcReal, InfiltatationUnit

Infiltration Coefficient per length unit of joints. Used in conjunction with the LenghtOfJoints property in Pset_WindowPanel or Pset_DoorPanel.. The usual unit (if pressure is taken into consideration) is m3/(mhPa2/3). The following translations apply: G: Fugendurchlaßkoeffizient, J: JYOINTO BUBUN NO KUUKI TOUKARITU

GlazingAreaFraction

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcPositiveRatioMeasure

Fraction of the glazing area relative to the total area of the filling element. It shall be used, if the glazing area is not given in the Pset_DoorWinPanelOpening as OpeningArea. The following translations apply: G: Glasflächenanteil, J: MADO MENSEKI HIRITU

StandardPanelType

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcString

Description of the standard operating type of the panel, according to the national classification system.

Glazing

IfcSimpleProperty

Pset_GlazingType

Reference to the property set for the glazing, given as reference to the 'nested' property set (Pset_GlazingType).

PivotsVertically

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcBoolean

Boolean indicating if the window panel pivots vertically (rotation axis in the middle of width)

PivotsHorizontally

IfcSimpleProperty

IfcBoolean

Boolean indicating if the window panel pivots horizontally (rotation axis in the middle of height). If both, PivotsVertically and PivotsHorizontally, is set to TRUE, then the window pivots in both directions.
