/report — Structured Construction Deliverables

Generate formatted construction documents from extracted data. For CLI command syntax, see /cli-tools.

Deliverable Types

Type	Description	Format
qto	Quantity takeoff grouped by storey	CSV + Markdown
schedule	Element schedule (door, window)	CSV
material-takeoff	Materials with quantities	CSV
compliance	Compliance checklist (fire, accessibility, thermal)	Markdown
discrepancy	Cross-validation results	Markdown

Procedure

1. Parse argument — /report qto doors, /report schedule windows, /report compliance fire
2. Read saved data from output/ (most recent ifc_*.json for requested type)
3. Get aggregates — run quantities command for totals. NEVER do arithmetic.

   python skills/cli-tools/scripts/ifc_extract.py <file.ifc> quantities <type> --group-by storey
   

4. Format per Australian conventions (see below)
5. Save timestamped output to output/

Australian Construction Conventions

Column ordering

• Door schedule: Mark, Level, Size (WxH mm), Type, Fire Rating, Hardware, Material, Finish
• Window schedule: Mark, Level, Size (WxH mm), Type, Glazing, U-Value (W/m2K), Operability
• QTO table: Element Type, Count, Total Area (m2), Total Volume (m3), Material, Level, Source

Formatting rules

• Metric units: mm for dimensions, m2 for areas, m3 for volumes
• Australian terminology: "storey" not "story", "Level 1" not "Floor 1"
• FRL notation per AS 1530.4: structural adequacy / integrity / insulation (e.g., FRL -/60/30)
• Null values display as "-", never "null" or blank

Compliance Checklists

Fire (/report compliance fire)

• Doors in fire-rated walls without fire ratings (WARN)
• Fire rating IFC vs PDF mismatches (WARN)
• Elements with FireRating set (PASS)
• Reference: NCC Volume One, Section C

Accessibility (/report compliance accessibility)

• Door widths min 850mm clear (AS 1428.1)
• Stair geometry — riser height, tread depth (NCC D2.13)
• Railing heights (NCC D2.16)

Thermal (/report compliance thermal)

• Window U-Values present/absent
• Wall thermal transmittance values
• External element identification

Error Handling

• No data → tell user to run /ifc-extract <type> first
• quantities fails → report error, don't fabricate numbers
• Wrong element type → list what data IS available in output/
