IFC roundtripping specifications

This file lists "exercises" to be performed by a BIM application to achieve adequate round-tripping with IFC files. The application should successfully complete all the steps.

1. Extrusions

The application should be able to export and import an IFC file containing three IfcBuildingElementProxy entities, each with one representation, which is an IfcExtrudedAreaSolid, each based on IfcArbitraryClosedProfileDef made of an IfcPolyline, like the example below. One profile should lie on the XY plane, one in the YZ plane, and a third on a plane made of one of the former rotated 45° along the Y axis. Extrusion directions should be normal to the profiles.

  #20= IFCBUILDINGELEMENTPROXY('0ohBfsArr3ruXYxacT4yl5',#1,'NOTDEFINED',$,$,#2,#21,$,.NOTDEFINED.);
    #21= IFCPRODUCTDEFINITIONSHAPE($,$,(#22));
      #22= IFCSHAPEREPRESENTATION(#9,'Body','SweptSolid',(#23));
        #23= IFCEXTRUDEDAREASOLID(#24,#31,#25,2000.);
          #24 = IFCARBITRARYCLOSEDPROFILEDEF(.AREA., $, #26);
            #26 = IFCPOLYLINE((#27, #28, #29, #30));
              #27 = IFCCARTESIANPOINT((0., 0.));
              #28 = IFCCARTESIANPOINT((1000., 0.));
              #29 = IFCCARTESIANPOINT((1000., 1000.));
              #30 = IFCCARTESIANPOINT((0., 1000.));
          #25= IFCDIRECTION((0.,0.,1.));
          #31= IFCAXIS2PLACEMENT3D(#32,#33,#34);
            #32= IFCDIRECTION((0.7071,0.,-0.7071));
            #33= IFCDIRECTION((0.7071,0.,0.7071));
            #34= IFCCARTESIANPOINT((1000.,0.,2000.));

Import criteria

  • The extrusion directions and profile positions are correct
  • The extrusions can be changed after import
  • The base polylines can be edited after import

Export criteria

  • The exported IFC file contains three IfcBuildingElementProxy, each with an IfcExtrudedAreaSolid as its representation and an IfcArbitraryClosedProfileDef made of an IfcPolyline as its profile.
  • The positions and extrusion directions are correct when the IFC file is viewed with ifc++
