1. IFD and IFC 2x3G Storing prduct data in the IFC model Håvard Bell, PhD Lars Bjørkhaug SINTEF Building and Infrastructure

5. Long time to complete application support No solution for today Loose momentum It only works in 2x3 G

6. Loose a lot of IFD possibilities Dirty hacks Vision forgotten No need for 2x3 G, works today

7. Partly solutions for today Encourage use of library Increase pressure, and thus money for content Incredible opportunities Very easy to implement (2 entities...) Keep the vision

8. Announcement: Building and Infrastructure...will base their knowledge suit on IFC 2x3G and later We need the full support.

12. ...tag all text based information with IFD IDs 2WbbKAzWyHsW0001K0EGVI

14. Today Maintain IFC Property Sets in the IFD library –Multilinguality –IFC  IFDIFC  IFD –IFD  IFCIFD  IFC Translate IFC-native information –IFC is treated as a language Tag all subtypes of IfcRoot with a classification mechanism

15. Soon (2x3G) Tag all information with IFD IDs Translate all information based on IFC and IFD Standardize product data exchange –Search on requirements –One standard way to export product data Easy for manufacturers Build standard element and material libraries Improve model checkers and automated services

17. The thing called ”real world”...
