ifc-core-data-model

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when you need to understand or explain how the IFC schema is organized, decide which conceptual layer an entity belongs to, judge whether one schema is allowed to reference another, or work out why an entity does or does not carry a GlobalId. Prevents the upward-reference mistake (a lower-layer schema pointing at a higher-layer entity), the assumption that every IFC entity has a GUID, and the error of treating a serialized .ifc / .ifcXML / .ifcJSON file as the schema instead of a derived encoding. Covers the four-layer architecture (Resource, Core, Interoperability/Shared, Domain), the downward-only referencing rule (ladder principle), the EXPRESS schema as the single canonical model, and the GlobalId presence rule across IFC2x3, IFC4 and IFC4.3. Keywords: IFC layered architecture, four-layer schema, Resource layer, Core layer, Interoperability layer, Domain layer, ladder principle, downward reference, IfcKernel, IfcProductExtension, GlobalId, GUID, IfcRoot, EXPRESS canonical model, ISO 16739-1, ISO 10303

ifc-impl-authoring-file

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when authoring a new IFC file from scratch and the minimal valid skeleton must be built before any element can be added: the IfcProject context root, the IfcUnitAssignment, the IfcGeometricRepresentationContext, the spatial tree, the IfcOwnerHistory, the STEP header, and the first wall with geometry. Prevents the file failing to open or showing nothing in a viewer because units, the geometric context, or the spatial root are missing, because GlobalId values are regenerated on every export, or because FILE_SCHEMA does not match the entities used. Covers the mandatory setup sequence, the HEADER and FILE_SCHEMA, stable GlobalId generation, the project to site to building to storey chain wired with IfcRelAggregates, placing one IfcWall with IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure, and the decision of which IFC version to target. Keywords: author IFC file, create IFC from scratch, minimal IFC file, IfcProject setup, IfcUnitAssignment, IfcOwnerHistory, IfcGeometricRepresentationContext, FILE_SCHEMA, GlobalId generati

ifc-impl-cobie

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when producing, reading, or extracting COBie facility-management handover data from an IFC model: mapping COBie worksheets to IFC entities, deciding which records belong in COBie scope, choosing between the IFC STEP exchange and the spreadsheet form, or extracting a COBie subset from a full design model. Prevents treating COBie as a geometry format, inventing IFC entity names for COBie records, mapping a Component to a type instead of an occurrence, and exporting parametric geometry into an FM handover. Covers COBie as the Basic FM Handover MVD subset, the worksheet to IFC entity map, the IFC2x3 and IFC4 bindings, and the STEP versus spreadsheet exchange.

ifc-impl-library-selection

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when choosing which IFC implementation library to use for a project, or when unsure which tool reads and writes IFC files for a given language, platform, or target IFC version. Prevents picking a library that does not fit the language or platform, expecting this package to teach a library API, asserting an unverified IFCx Rust library, and confusing schema migration with geometry conversion. Covers the library landscape (IfcOpenShell, web-ifc, xBIM, IFC++), the language and platform decision matrix, routing to the owning OpenAEC skill packages, and the emerging state of IFC5 and IFCx tooling. Keywords: IFC library, IfcOpenShell, web-ifc, ThatOpen engine_web-ifc, xBIM, XbimEssentials, IFC++, ifcx-rs, which IFC library should I use, read IFC in Python, parse IFC in the browser, IFC in dotnet, IFC in Rust, IFC WASM, library decision matrix, pointer skill, which tool for IFC, how do I open an IFC file in code, "library does not support my IFC version", "no IFC library for my language", "IFC parsing is too slo

ifc-syntax-ifcjson

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when reading, generating, or evaluating an ifcJSON file, choosing a JSON encoding for IFC data in a web or REST application, or resolving the ref-based cross-references in an ifcJSON document. Prevents treating ifcJSON as a stable standardized format, expecting lossless round-tripping, inlining referenced entities instead of using ref objects, and using the legacy IFCJSON-Team lineage instead of the current buildingsmart-community repo. Covers ifcJSON as a provisional candidate format for IFC4 and IFC4.3 : the top-level envelope, the data array of entity objects, camelCased attribute keys, the ref object that replaces the STEP id, file size, and the two ifcJSON lineages. Keywords: ifcJSON, IFC JSON, JSON encoding of IFC, ifcjson data array, ref object, globalId, camelCase IFC attributes, buildingsmart-community ifcJSON, provisional format, candidate format, IFC for web apps, IFC REST API, how do I read an IFC JSON file, convert IFC to JSON, IFC without EXPRESS, my ifcJSON will not round-trip, "ifcJSON fil

Impertio-Studio/IFC-Claude-Skill-Package

Use when you need to read, write, or recognise an ifcXML file, understand the iso_10303_28 / uos document structure, or resolve id / ref / href references in IFC XML data. Prevents confusing ifcXML (ISO 10303-28) with the STEP Physical File (ISO 10303-21), hand-authoring the XSD instead of generating it, ignoring the version-specific Part 28 configuration file, and mishandling the by-reference versus by-containment duality. Covers the ifcXML XML encoding, ISO 10303-28, the Part 28 configuration file, the iso_10303_28 root and single uos element, entity-to-element mapping, id / ref / href references, and when to choose ifcXML over SPF.

IFC Spatial Structure Errors

Diagnose and fix the errors that break the spatial structure of an IFC file : an element with no spatial container (an orphan), an element contained twice, an element placed at the wrong level, a deprecated proxy abused as a placeholder, and a spatial tree that is missing levels or never reaches IfcProject. These errors leave a file that may still pass EXPRESS schema checks, yet elements vanish from viewers, quantity take-off, and facility-management exports.

For the spatial-structure MODEL (how the tree is built correctly) see ifc-core-spatial-structure and ifc-impl-spatial-decomposition. For abstract WHERE-rule and global-RULE errors in general see ifc-errors-schema-validation. For dangling #id references see ifc-errors-broken-references.

Quick Reference

The mandatory spatial skeleton

Every physical element MUST be locatable through one acyclic tree rooted at IfcProject. The tree levels differ by version:

Level	IFC2x3	IFC4	IFC4.3
Context root	`IfcProject`	`IfcProject`	`IfcProject`
Site	`IfcSite`	`IfcSite`	`IfcSite`
Facility	`IfcBuilding`	`IfcBuilding`	`IfcFacility` (`IfcBuilding`, `IfcBridge`, `IfcRoad`, `IfcRailway`, `IfcMarineFacility`)
Sub-level	`IfcBuildingStorey`	`IfcBuildingStorey`	`IfcFacilityPart` (`IfcBuildingStorey`)
Space	`IfcSpace`	`IfcSpace`	`IfcSpace`

IfcProject is NOT a spatial element. It is an IfcContext subtype. The tree attaches BENEATH it via IfcRelAggregates.

The three structuring relationships

Relationship	Connects	Direction	Use for
`IfcRelAggregates`	spatial level to spatial level, project to site, whole to parts	`RelatingObject` (whole) to `RelatedObjects` SET	Building the tree itself : `IfcProject` to `IfcSite` to `IfcBuilding`/`IfcFacility` to storey to `IfcSpace`
`IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure`	a spatial level to physical elements	`RelatingStructure` (one level) to `RelatedElements` SET OF `IfcProduct`	Placing a wall, beam, door into exactly ONE spatial level
`IfcRelReferencedInSpatialStructure`	a spatial level to elements (IFC4, IFC4.3 only)	`RelatingStructure` to `RelatedElements` SET	A SECONDARY, non-hierarchical reference for an element spanning levels

Core rules

ALWAYS attach a physical element to its spatial level with IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure. NEVER use IfcRelAggregates for that : IfcRelAggregates builds the tree, it does not place elements in it.
ALWAYS give every physical IfcElement occurrence exactly ONE IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure link. Zero links is an orphan ; two links violate the IfcElement.ContainedInStructure inverse, declared SET [0:1].
Double containment is NOT a WR31 violation. WR31 forbids putting a SPATIAL STRUCTURE element into RelatedElements. ALWAYS name the correct rule.
ALWAYS aggregate every IfcSpatialStructureElement up to IfcProject or another spatial element (WR41). A site with no path to IfcProject breaks the tree.
NEVER leave IfcProject.Decomposes populated : the NoDecomposition WHERE rule forbids anything aggregating the project.
IFC4.3 : NEVER use IfcBuildingElementProxy as a void or clearance placeholder. ALWAYS use IfcVirtualElement instead.

Decision Trees

Which spatial-structure error is this

Symptom ?
├─ element absent from viewer tree / quantity take-off / FM export
│   └─ count its IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure links
│       ├─ zero links  -> ORPHAN element. Pattern 1.
│       └─ one link    -> not orphaned ; check the level. Pattern 3.
├─ validation flags IfcElement.ContainedInStructure cardinality
│   -> DOUBLE containment (two links). Pattern 2.
├─ validation flags WR31 on IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure
│   -> a spatial element is wrongly listed in RelatedElements. Pattern 4.
├─ element is in the tree but under the wrong level (door under IfcSite)
│   -> WRONG containment level. Pattern 3.
├─ a proxy is used as a void / clearance / virtual placeholder
│   -> PROXY-as-placeholder misuse. Pattern 5.
└─ no IfcSite, WR41 fails, NoDecomposition fails, or multiple IfcProject
    -> MISSING or BROKEN spatial tree. Pattern 6.

Which spatial level should contain this element

What is the element ?
├─ a physical building element (wall, beam, slab, column, pipe)
│   -> contain in the storey it physically belongs to (IfcBuildingStorey).
├─ furniture, sanitary, a sensor, equipment inside a room
│   -> contain in the IfcSpace if the room is modelled, else the storey.
├─ a site element (fence, terrain feature, external pavement)
│   -> contain in IfcSite.
├─ an element spanning two storeys (a stair, a tall facade panel)
│   -> contain in ONE storey ; reference the other storey with
│      IfcRelReferencedInSpatialStructure (IFC4, IFC4.3 only).
└─ a spatial level itself (IfcSpace, IfcBuildingStorey)
    -> NEVER use IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure. Aggregate it with
       IfcRelAggregates. Putting it in RelatedElements breaks WR31.

Proxy or virtual element : placeholder decision

Need a non-physical placeholder (provision for void, clearance, imaginary boundary) ?
├─ file schema is IFC4.3
│   -> use IfcVirtualElement. NEVER IfcBuildingElementProxy : the proxy is
│      deprecated for this use in IFC4.3.0.0.
├─ file schema is IFC2x3 or IFC4
│   -> IfcVirtualElement is preferred for imaginary space boundaries.
│      IfcBuildingElementProxy with PredefinedType PROVISIONFORVOID is the
│      legacy provision-for-void pattern still accepted in these versions.
└─ the object is genuinely a physical, unclassifiable construction element
    -> IfcBuildingElementProxy is correct (any version). It is NOT a misuse here.

Patterns

Pattern 1 : detect and fix an orphan element

An orphan is a physical IfcElement occurrence whose ContainedInStructure inverse resolves to zero IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure instances. The SET [0:1] inverse cardinality ALLOWS zero, so the file can pass EXPRESS schema validation, yet the element is unreachable by spatial traversal : viewers omit it from the model tree and quantity take-off skips it.

Detect : for each physical element, check whether any IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure lists it in RelatedElements.

Fix : add ONE IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure whose RelatingStructure is the correct spatial level (see the level decision tree) and whose RelatedElements includes the orphan. NEVER attach it with IfcRelAggregates. The buildingSMART normative SPS rule family flags missing containment ; ALWAYS re-validate after the fix.

Pattern 2 : fix double containment

Double containment is one element listed in RelatedElements of TWO different IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure instances. It violates the inverse attribute IfcElement.ContainedInStructure, declared SET [0:1] OF IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure FOR RelatedElements. The compliance check reports an inverse-cardinality error.

Fix : decide the ONE spatial level that owns the element and keep that single IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure link. Remove the element from the RelatedElements of every other containment relationship. If the element genuinely relates to a second level (a stair across two storeys), express that second link with IfcRelReferencedInSpatialStructure (IFC4, IFC4.3). NEVER keep two ...ContainedInSpatialStructure links to satisfy both levels.

Pattern 3 : fix a wrong containment level

The element has exactly one containment link, so it is not an orphan, but the RelatingStructure is the wrong level : a door contained directly in IfcSite, a wall contained in IfcProject (impossible : IfcProject is not spatial), or room furniture contained in the storey when the IfcSpace exists.

This is schema-valid but semantically wrong : downstream consumers group by spatial level, so the element lands in the wrong room schedule or floor plan.

Fix : edit the single IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure so RelatingStructure points at the correct level per the level decision tree. ALWAYS contain a physical building element in its IfcBuildingStorey ; contain room-scoped contents in the IfcSpace when that space is modelled.

Pattern 4 : fix a WR31 violation

WR31 on IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure states verbatim : "The relationship object shall not be used to include other spatial structure elements into a spatial structure element. The hierarchy of the spatial structure is defined using IfcRelAggregates." The rule is identical in IFC2x3, IFC4, and IFC4.3.

The violation : a spatial structure element (an IfcSpace, IfcBuildingStorey, IfcBuilding, IfcSite, ...) appears in the RelatedElements SET of an IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure. The author used containment where aggregation was required.

Fix : remove the spatial element from RelatedElements and connect it to its parent level with IfcRelAggregates instead (RelatingObject = parent level, RelatedObjects includes the spatial element). WR31 is NOT about double containment ; NEVER report it as such.

Pattern 5 : replace a proxy-as-placeholder with IfcVirtualElement

IfcBuildingElementProxy is the escape hatch for genuinely unclassifiable PHYSICAL construction elements. It is misused when it stands in for a non-physical placeholder : a provision for void, a clearance zone, an imaginary space boundary.

IFC4.3 made this explicit. The IFC4.3.0.0 change note states virtual elements "can now be used for void provisions and clearance to replace existing functionality on IfcBuildingElementProxy". IfcVirtualElement gained a PredefinedType of IfcVirtualElementTypeEnum : BOUNDARY, PROVISIONFORVOID, CLEARANCE, USERDEFINED, NOTDEFINED.

Fix (IFC4.3) : replace each placeholder IfcBuildingElementProxy with an IfcVirtualElement, set PredefinedType to PROVISIONFORVOID, CLEARANCE, or BOUNDARY as appropriate, and keep the element in the spatial structure with the SAME IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure link. In IFC2x3 and IFC4 the legacy proxy-with-PROVISIONFORVOID pattern still validates ; ALWAYS migrate it when upgrading a file to IFC4.3.

Pattern 6 : repair a missing or broken spatial tree

A broken tree has one or more of : no IfcSite, a spatial element with no aggregation path to IfcProject, more than one IfcProject, or IfcProject itself being aggregated by something.

Checks and fixes:

WR41 on IfcSpatialStructureElement : "All spatial structure elements shall be associated (using the IfcRelAggregates relationship) with another spatial structure element, or with IfcProject." A site or building with an empty Decomposes inverse fails WR41. Fix : add the IfcRelAggregates link to its parent.
NoDecomposition on IfcProject : IfcProject.Decomposes MUST be empty. Nothing aggregates the project. Fix : remove any IfcRelAggregates whose RelatedObjects contains the IfcProject.
IfcSingleProjectInstance global RULE (IFC4, IFC4.3) : SIZEOF(IfcProject) <= 1. Fix : keep exactly one IfcProject and re-aggregate every site beneath it.
A missing intermediate level (elements containment-linked to IfcBuilding with no IfcBuildingStorey) is accepted by some tools but breaks storey-based views. ALWAYS model the full chain Project to Site to Building/Facility to Storey to Space and contain physical elements at the storey or space level.

ALWAYS run the buildingSMART validation service after the repair : the SPS normative rule family checks basic spatial structure for buildings.
