IfcVibrationIsolatorType

Definition from IAI: The element type IfcVibrationIsolatorType defines a list of commonly shared property set definitions of a vibration isolator and an optional set of product representations. It is used to define a vibration isolator specification (i.e. the specific product information, that is common to all occurrences of that product type).

> NOTE: The product representations are defined as representation maps (at the level of the supertype IfcTypeProduct, which get assigned by an element occurrence instance through the IfcShapeRepresentation.Item[1] being an IfcMappedItem.

A vibration isolator type is used to define the common properties of an isolator that may be applied to many occurrences of that type. A vibration isolator is a device used to minimize the effects of vibration transmissibility in a building. Isolator types (or the instantiable subtypes) may be exchanged without being already assigned to occurrences.

The occurrences of the IfcVibrationIsolatorType are represented by instances of IfcEquipmentElement or its subtypes.
