IfcTunnel

IFC-Tunnel is an extension of the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), which provides new entities particularly tailored for the semantic description of shield tunnels. Moreover, IFC-Tunnel implement a multi-scale definition, which allow viewers to represent the model under five different Levels of Detail (LoD).

As a proof-of-concept, we developed a collection of example files (based on STEP-P21), which divided into three levels, integrate the different concepts of the proposed extension. Furthermore, we make use of several geometrical representation objects – described all in the last update of the IFC standard – to model the tunnel spaces and physical entities.
