IfcRamp

IfcRamp

A ramp is a vertical passageway which provides a human circulation link between one floor level and another floor level at a different elevation. It may include a landing as an intermediate floor slab. A ramp normally does not include steps.

NOTE  Definition according to ISO 6707-1: Inclined way or floor joining two surfaces at different levels.

The IfcRamp shall either be represented:

• as a ramp assembly that aggregates all parts(ramp flight, landing, etc.) with own shape representations, or
• as a single ramp without decomposition including all shape representations directly at the ramp entity.

NOTE  In case of an IfcRamp being the assembly of all parts of the ramp the aggregation is handled by the IfcRelAggregates relationship, relating an IfcRamp with the related IfcRampFlightand landings, IfcSlab with PredefinedType=LANDING. IfcRailing's belonging to the ramp may also be included into the aggregation.

NOTE  Model View Definitions and implementer agreements may restrict the IfcRamp being an assembly to not have an independent shape representation, but to always require that the decomposed parts have a shape representation. In this case, at least the 'Body' geometric representations shall not be provided directly at IfcRamp if it is an assembly. The 'Body' geometric representation of the IfcRamp is then the sum of the 'Body' shape representation of the parts within the decomposition structure.
