Annex E Examples - LinearPlacement_2

Example overview

Intent

This scenario demonstrates the usage of IfcLinearPlacement in combination with IfcAxis2PlacementLinear and IfcPointByDistanceExpression.

Prerequisites

This scenario builds upon following other scenarios: - ProjectSetup_1 - basic spatial structure containing an IfcProject and an IfcSite entity

Content

This scenario covers the following concepts and/or IFC entities: - project structure - IfcProject - IfcSite - alignment - IfcAlignment - IfcGradientCurve - linear placement - IfcLinearPlacement - IfcAxis2PlacementLinear - IfcPointByDistanceExpression

This scenario might be extended by the following concepts: - GeoRef (see Georeferencing_1 scenario) - advanced spatial structure - Element assemblies and aggregations - advanced geometry representations

Supporting files

Following files correspond to this scenario:
