Name Cardinality and Range Description Inheritance
connection_physical_type 1
ConnectionPhysicalType
IFC-derived physical connector form (for example door, window, duct, pipe, cable). Semantic role is expressed via connection_functional_types. direct
connection_functional_types 1..*
ConnectionFunctionalType
Functional connection role(s) between spaces (for example access, visual, ventilation, heating). Multiple values allowed (for example glazed door as access plus visual). direct
transport_medium 1
TransportMedium
Primary transport medium carried or enabled by the connector (for example human_access, air, liquid, electricity). direct
frame_material 0..1
Material
Material of the frame or casing surrounding the opening. Applies to opening-type connectors (door, window). direct
infill_material 0..1
Material
Material of the opening infill within the frame (for example glazing for windows, door leaf or panel for doors). Applies to opening-type connectors (door, window). direct
connection_physical_requirement_drivers *
ConnectionRequirementDriver
Performance requirement drivers for this physical connection element. Multiple values are allowed because one connection may need to satisfy several requirements. direct
parent_building 0..1
BuiltAssetContext
Parent building context reference. PhysicalElement
parent_level 0..1
LevelContext
Parent level/storey context reference. PhysicalElement
id 1
String
Unique local identifier. Entity
content_kind 1
String
Entity type discriminator for adapter projection and querying. Must be a ContentKind value. Entity
name 1
String
Default display name. Entity

ifc_global_id 0..1
String
IFC GlobalId of the mapped entity. Entity
classifications *
Classification
Classification entries from IFC and other schemes. Entity
geometry_representations *
GeometryRepresentation
Geometry references associated with the entity. A single element may link to multiple geometry representations to serve different intents (authoring, coordination, analysis, visualization) without duplicating the element itself. Entity
quantity_values *
QuantityValue
Quantities associated with the entity. Entity
metadata *
MetadataEntry
Generic metadata container for IFC attributes/properties and project-specific extensions. Entity
performance_properties *
PerformanceProperty
Normalized, strongly typed domain properties (fire/acoustic/thermal/structural/ security/material) extracted from raw IFC PropertySet values. Entity
applies_to_entities *
Entity
Model entities this record applies to (requirements, cost items, schedule items, etc.). Entity
created_at 0..1
Datetime
Creation timestamp for this entity record. Entity
modified_at 0..1
Datetime
Last modification timestamp for this entity record. Entity
revision 0..1
Integer
Integer revision counter for change tracking. Entity
status 0..1
StatusType
Lifecycle or QA status. Entity
