Create the building physics concept

Set the building physics component catalogue with values for the envelope and separating components.

Starting point

• Envelope and separation values often exist only in reports; variants and verification are hard to align with the model.
• Without catalogue values, architecture and specialists lack a shared basis.

Goal & benefit

• Maintain the building physics component catalogue bindingly.
• Base verification, variants, and coordination on the same values.

Process

1. Provide the architecture model with envelope and separating components.
2. Define the catalogue with envelope and separating-component values.
3. Align the catalogue with architecture, specialists, and verification documents.

Outcome

• Aligned building physics component catalogue as the basis for verification and QA acoustics / building physics.

Deliverables

• Building physics component catalogue
• Architecture model with IfcProject, IfcSite, IfcBuilding, and IfcBuildingStorey
• Envelope and separating components IfcWall, IfcSlab (FLOOR), IfcRoof, IfcWindow, and IfcDoor
• No additional Rw attributes - values are checked by QA acoustics / building physics
