IfcWindowPanelProperties
Definition from buildingSMART: A description of the window panel. A window
panel is a casement, i.e. a component, fixed or opening, consisting essentially
of a frame and the infilling. The infilling of a window panel is normally
glazing. The way of operation is defined in the operation type.
The IfcWindowPanelProperties are included in the list of
properties (HasPropertySets) of the IfcWindowStyle. More
information about the window panel can be included in the same list of the
IfcWindowStyle using the IfcPropertySet for dynamic extensions.
HISTORY New entity in IFC
Release 2.0, it had been renamed from IfcWindowPanel in IFC Release
2x.
Geometry Use Definitions
The IfcWindowPanelProperties does not hold an own geometric
representation. However it defines parameter, which can be used to create the
shape of the IfcWindowStyle (which is inserted by the IfcWindow
into the spatial context of the project).
Interpretation of parameter
The parameters at the IfcWindowPanelProperties define a standard
window panel. The outer boundary of the panel is determined by the occurrence
parameter assigned to the IfcWindow, which inserts the IfcWindowStyle. It has
to take the lining parameter into account as well. The position of the window
panel within the overall window is determined by the PanelPosition
attribute.
 |
The panel is applied to the position
within the lining, as defined by the panel position attribute. The following
parameter apply to that panel:
- FrameDepth
- FrameThickness

Attribute definitions:
| OperationType
|
:
|
Types of window panel operations. Also used to assign standard symbolic presentations according to national
building standards.
|
| PanelPosition
|
:
|
Position of this panel within the overall window style.
|
| FrameDepth
|
:
|
Depth of panel frame, measured from front face to back face horizontally (i.e. perpendicular to the window
(elevation) plane.
|
| FrameThickness
|
:
|
Width of panel frame, measured from inside of panel (at glazing) to outside of panel (at lining), i.e.
parallel to the window (elevation) plane.
|
| ShapeAspectStyle
|
:
|
Optional link to a shape aspect definition, which points to the part of the geometric representation
of the window style, which is used to represent the panel.
