Footing (Rough)

ARC-FOOTING

Makes the space and location required to transfer loads into the ground verifiable early and prevents conflicts with basements, services, and excavation.

Description

Coarsely dimensioned footing geometry according to the structural concept.
Used for coordination between architecture and structural engineering, not for execution planning.

Modelling guidelines

Model as a simplified volume using the coordinated dimensions.
Split at component boundaries.
Do not model reinforcement, foundation details, or layer build-ups.
During conceptual architectural design, coordinate the dimensions of conceptual structural components with the structural engineer and adopt them in the architecture model.
Use and export the appropriate material from the authoring system.

Attributes

Name	Description	Unit
Name	Footing designation according to the structural plan.
PredefinedType	Kind of footing. Allowed values `STRIP_FOOTING` - strip footing `PAD_FOOTING` - pad footing `PILE_CAP` - pile cap `USERDEFINED` - special footing
LoadBearing Pset_FootingCommon	Marks the element as a load-bearing component in the architecture model. Allowed values `TRUE` - load-bearing component
Status Pset_FootingCommon	Component status for coordinating work in existing buildings. Allowed values `NEW` - new build `EXISTING` - existing `DEMOLISH` - demolition `TEMPORARY` - temporary
ElementStatus ePset_ElementStatus	Component status for coordinating work in existing buildings. Allowed values `NEW` - new build `EXISTING` - existing `DEMOLISH` - demolition `TEMPORARY` - temporary Note IFC2x3 substitute for Status.
CostInterface ePset_Cost	Cost interface of the component - base building or tenant fit-out. Allowed values `GAB` - base building (client / landlord) `MAB_{TenantName}` - tenant fit-out, e.g. `MAB_TenantA`
FundingApplication ePset_Cost	Number of the funding application, so quantities and costs can be filtered by application. Separate several numbers with commas, e.g. `2024-0142, 2024-0188`. Leave empty when the component belongs to no application.
AwardInterface ePset_Cost	Procurement package of the component, so interfaces between contractor packages become visible. Allowed values See the Procurement package value list. This Swiss data package uses three-digit BKP codes, e.g. `211`, `221`, `244`.
PlanningInterface ePset_Cost	Planning interface of the component as a three-digit BKP code, so responsibilities between design disciplines become visible. Allowed values See the BKP planning package value list, e.g. `091`, `092`, `094`.
BelowTerrain ePset_Cost	Marks whether the component sits below ground level. Allowed values `TRUE` - below ground `FALSE` - above ground
eBKP ePset_Cost	eBKP-H classification according to SN 506 511 - derivable from IsExternal, LoadBearing, and BelowTerrain. Allowed values `C01.02` - footing
CalculatedType ePset_Cost	Calculated type name for cost and quantity grouping. Logic `FundamentTypisierung`. Example: `Fundament_Streifen_Beton_50x30cm`
ProductClass ePset_Cost	Product class for cost and tender assignment. It may be assigned manually; for consistent tender data, it should preferably be derived from component properties through deterministic automation or AI-assisted mapping. Allowed values See the Product class value list.
UnitPrice ePset_Cost	Project- or office-specific unit price per unit of the reference quantity, used to check component costs for plausibility.	CHF/m³
ReferenceQuantity ePset_Cost	Authoritative reference quantity used with UnitPrice: `Qto_FootingBaseQuantities.GrossVolume`.
GlobalTradeItemNumber Pset_ManufacturerTypeInformation	GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) of the product type; 8, 12, 13, or 14 digits depending on the GS1 structure.
SerialNumber Pset_ManufacturerOccurrence	Serial number the manufacturer assigns to an individual product; with the GTIN it identifies the product passport for that specific item.
Width Qto_FootingBaseQuantities	Width of the modelled footing.	m
Height Qto_FootingBaseQuantities	Height of the modelled footing.	m
GrossVolume Qto_FootingBaseQuantities	Gross volume of the modelled footing.	m³
