IfcBuildingElementProxyType

Definition from buildingSMART: The IfcBuildingElementProxyType defines a list of commonly shared property set definitions of a building element proxy and an optional set of product representations. It is used to define an element specification (i.e. the specific product information, that is common to all occurrences of that product type).

NOTE The product representations are defined as representation maps (at the level of the supertype IfcTypeProduct, which gets assigned by an element occurrence instance through the IfcShapeRepresentation.Item[1] being an IfcMappedItem.

A building element proxy type is used to define the common properties of a certain type of a building element proxy that may be applied to many instances of that type to assign a specific style. Building element proxy types may be exchanged without being already assigned to occurrences.

The occurrences of the IfcBuildingElementProxyType are represented by instances of IfcBuildingElementProxy.
