54
+ ## Description
55
+
56
+ A large multi-storey hospital building donated by Wawan Solihin (Singapore) and hosted on the
57
+ OpenIFC Model Repository by Professor Robert Amor at the University of Auckland. The dataset
58
+ provides seven disciplines each available in both IFC 2X3 and IFC 4, making it one of the most
59
+ comprehensive multi-schema, multi-discipline BIM datasets in the public domain.
60
+
61
+ The architectural model covers 8 levels (Level 1 through Level 7A, elevations 0--34000 mm).
62
+ The structural model covers 15 levels. The mechanical model is exceptionally detailed with
63
+ 59,215 products across 11 levels.
64
+
65
+ ## Models
66
+
67
+ | File | Discipline | Schema | Storeys | Products | Description |
68
+ |------|-----------|--------|---------|----------|-------------|
69
+ | `arc_ifc2x3.ifc` | Architecture | IFC2X3 | 8 | 15,316 | Full architectural model incl. walls, doors, windows, columns, members, plates |
70
+ | `arc_ifc4.ifc` | Architecture | IFC4 | 8 | 15,316 | IFC4 counterpart -- identical product count |
71
+ | `str_ifc2x3.ifc` | Structural | IFC2X3 | 15 | 2,915 | Structural frame: 1970 beams, 255 columns, slabs |
72
+ | `str_ifc4.ifc` | Structural | IFC4 | 15 | 2,915 | IFC4 counterpart |
73
+ | `mech_ifc2x3.ifc` | Mechanical | IFC2X3 | 11 | 59,215 | HVAC system: 8,732 duct/pipe segments, 1,064 terminals |
74
+ | `mech_ifc4.ifc` | Mechanical | IFC4 | 11 | 59,215 | IFC4 counterpart -- 3,916 IfcPipeSegment elements |
75
+ | `plumb_ifc2x3.ifc` | Plumbing | IFC2X3 | 5 | 26,942 | 4,308 pipe segments, 474 terminals |
76
+ | `plumb_ifc4.ifc` | Plumbing | IFC4 | 5 | 26,942 | IFC4 counterpart |
77
+ | `elec_ifc2x3.ifc` | Electrical | IFC2X3 | 7 | 6,305 | 1,410 flow terminals, 84 segments |
78
+ | `elec_ifc4.ifc` | Electrical | IFC4 | 7 | 6,305 | IFC4 counterpart -- 1,272 IfcLightFixture elements |
79
+ | `fire_ifc2x3.ifc` | Fire Alarm | IFC2X3 | 5 | 874 | Fire alarm devices |
80
+ | `fire_ifc4.ifc` | Fire Alarm | IFC4 | 5 | 874 | IFC4 counterpart |
81
+ | `sprinkle_ifc2x3.ifc` | Sprinklers | IFC2X3 | 5 | 38,255 | 6,228 pipe segments, 1,354 sprinkler heads |
82
+ | `sprinkle_ifc4.ifc` | Sprinklers | IFC4 | 5 | 38,255 | IFC4 counterpart -- 1,354 IfcFireSuppressionTerminal |
83
+
84
+ ## Known Limitations
85
+
86
+ - **No IfcSpace elements** in any model including the architectural file. Rooms and spaces are
87
+ not explicitly modelled as IFC spatial units; spatial analysis must rely on storey containment.
88
+ - **IFC4 MEP files have fewer property sets** than their IFC2X3 counterparts. The
89
+ `Pset_DistributionFlowElementCommon` property set (containing `Reference`) was not carried
90
+ over during schema conversion for the mechanical, plumbing, and sprinkler models.
91
+ - **Empty building name**: the `IfcBuilding.Name` attribute is blank in all files; the
92
+ `IfcProject.Name` is set to `"Project Number"`.
93
+ - **Large unplaced element counts** in MEP files (e.g. 39,532 in mech): these are fitting and
94
+ accessory elements without direct spatial containment, which is typical for Revit MEP exports.
95
+ - The fire alarm model (874 products, 12 property sets) contains minimal property data.
96
+
97
+ ## Architectural Level Breakdown
98
+
99
+ | Level | Elevation (mm) | Elements |
100
+ |-------|---------------|----------|
101
+ | Level 1 | 0 | 844 |
102
+ | Level 2 | 6,000 | 909 |
103
+ | Level 3 | 11,000 | 1,167 |
104
+ | Level 4 | 16,000 | 856 |
105
+ | Level 5 | 21,000 | 788 |
106
+ | Level 6 | 26,000 | 448 |
107
+ | Level 7A | 31,000 | 154 |
108
+ | Level 7 | 34,000 | 21 |
