BisCore (BIS Core) Schema
Alias: bis
Version: 1.0.16
The BIS core schema contains classes that all other domain schemas extend.
BisCore contains the core classes that define the fundamental building-blocks of BIS (e.g. Models, Elements, and ElementAspects) and which specialize them to establish domain-neutral base-classes for modeling the real world from multiple Modeling Perspectives.
BisCore also contains some less-fundamental classes related to infrastructure engineering visualization and documentation in general, such as drawings, views, etc.
The core classes are decorated by ECCustomAttributes that effectively define the database schema mapping for an iModel, but which can be ignored for other kinds of BIS Repositories. Other schemas cannot alter the underlying database schema mapping without explicit permission from BisCore.
The classes of BisCore are used as base classes for all classes in other BIS Domain schemas.

Category Abstract EntityClass
A bis:Category categorizes a bis:GeometricElement and its geometry. Every bis:GeometricElement is in one and only one bis:Category. The visibility (on/off) of a bis:Category may be controlled per-view. Categories are similar to levels in DGN, layers in DWG, and categories in RVT.
Base Class: BisCore:DefinitionElement
Categories should be standardized by domain groups where possible. They generally correlate with groups of BIS Element classes, or a single base class.
Also see the ClassificationSystems domain schema for another way of categorizing and classifying elements.
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for
Category
requires a validCodeValue
(name) for every instance. It will insert a defaultSubCategory
for everyCategory
that is inserted. The system handler also restricts deletion. ACategory
can only be deleted via a more expensivedeleteDefinitionElements
method that has determined theCategory
is no longer referenced.

ChannelRootAspect (Channel Root Aspect) Sealed EntityClass
A bis:ElementUniqueAspect that identifies a bis:Element as the root of a channel which is a subset of the overall iModel hierarchy that is independently maintained.
Base Class: BisCore:ElementUniqueAspect
Applications create channels to define portions of the model-hierarchy that they "own".
Each Element (typically a Subject
or InformationPartitionElement
) that owns a ChannelRootAspect
defines a root of the model-hierarchy that is included in a particular channel. It recursively descends down through ElementOwnsChildElements
and ModelModelsElement
relationships to include all of the child elements and sub-models into the specified channel. A channel is conceptually identified by its Channel Key value of the Owner
property of a ChannelRootAspect
.
There may be more than one root Subject
s or InformationPartitionElement
s in a model-hierarchy that are included in the same channel. In that case, each Subject
or InformationPartitionElement
instance specifies the same Channel Key value in their ChannelRootAspect
.
Note that Channels do not nest. That is, once a Subject
or InformationPartitionElement
instance defines a root to be included in a particular channel, no descendant Element of such root in the subject-hierarchy can be used to define a root for a different channel.
See Channels for more information on the topic.

can conceptually be thought of as a folder of definitions.
A DefinitionContainer
is recommended when there is a standard set of domain-specific definitions that must be known to domain software applications.
In this case, the DefinitionContainer
should be contained by the DictionaryModel
and found by the software via a known Code
.

DefinitionGroup
is intended for defining non-exclusive sets of DefinitionElement
s (a DefinitionElement
may be in multiple DefinitionGroup
s). DefinitionGroup
holds its DefinitionElement
s through the DefinitionGroupGroupsDefinitions
relationship. The referenced DefinitionElement
s may be contained in the same DefinitionModel
as the DefinitionGroup
or may be contained in other DefinitionModel
s.
See DefinitionSet
documentation for recursive interpretations of DefinitionSet
s containing DefinitionSet
s.
Care must be taken to avoid circular references. Note that even a single DefinitionGroup
can create circular references in two cases:
- The
DefinitionGroup
directly contains itself. - The
DefinitionGroup
contains aDefinitionContainer
that directly or indirectly contains theDefinitionGroup
.

s) or may be non-exclusive (DefinitionGroup
does not own its DefinitionElement
s). DefinitionSet
should only be directly subclassed by DefinitionGroup
and DefinitionContainer
. DefinitionGroup
and DefinitionContainer
may be further subclassed.
References to DefinitionSet
s will generally treat the DefinitionSet
s recursively. If DefinitionSet
A contains DefinitionSet
B and DefinitionSet
C, the members of DefinitionSet
B and DefinitionSet
C will be considered to be first class members of DefinitionSet
A (effectively they will be considered as peers of the DefinitionElement
s that are directly contained in DefinitionSet
A). This recursive interpretation extends through the full depth of nested DefinitionSet
s.

Element Abstract EntityClass
A bis:Element is the smallest individually identifiable building block for modeling the real world. Each bis:Element represents an Entity in the real world. Sets of bis:Elements (contained in bis:Models) are used to sub-model other bis:Elements that represent larger scale real world Entities. Using this recursive modeling strategy, bis:Elements can represent Entities at any scale. Elements can represent physical things, abstract concepts or simply be information records.
Sets of bis:Element
s (contained in bis:Model
s) are used to sub-model other bis:Element
s that represent larger scale real world Entities. Using this recursive modeling strategy, bis:Element
s can represent Entities at any scale. Elements can represent physical things, abstract concepts or simply be information records.
See Element Fundamentals.
Behavior: System handlers (written in C++) and domain handlers (written in TypeScript) provide behavior to specific
Element
subclasses. The system handler forElement
requires a validModel
reference and a valid or emptyCode
. If theParent
property is notNULL
, the system handler also requires that the child Element be in the same Model as the parent Element. This is enforced for allElement
subclasses.

InformationPartitionElement (Information Partition) Abstract EntityClass
An instance of a specialization of bis:InformationPartitionElement establishes a particular Modeling Perspective for its parent bis:Subject. Instances are always sub-modeled by a specialization of bis:Model of the appropriate Modeling Perspective.
Base Class: BisCore:InformationContentElement
An InformationPartitionElement partitions the information in a BIS Repository into non-overlapping hierarchies of Models and Elements, each with a distinct Modeling Perspective. In some cases it further-partitions information into distinct subsets within a Modeling Perspective, based on a specific domain.
A bis:Subject mentions a real-world Object. BIS sees the Object as one-or-more Entities, where each Entity considers the Object from a particular Modeling Perspective. A specialization of a bis:InformationPartitionElement establishes a Perspective for modeling the Object to which the Subject refers. The top-Model sub-models the Partition. The actual modeling of the Entity with one-or-more Elements of the appropriate Modeling Perspective begins in the top-Model.
See Top of the World
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for
InformationPartitionElement
will only permit instances to be inserted into theRepositoryModel
. The system handler will also require everyInformationPartitionElement

PhysicalMaterial (Physical Material) Abstract EntityClass
A bis:PhysicalMaterial defines the matter of which physical objects are made. bis:PhysicalMaterials are not used to define rendering characteristics (see bis:RenderMaterial).
Base Class: BisCore:DefinitionElement
The PhysicalMaterial
serves as the base class for the materials in the PhysicalMaterial schema. Generally, it is expected that domain-specific properties (e.g. strength properties for the structural domain) will be added to the subclasses such as Concrete and Steel using domain-specific ElementAspects.
The Density property in this base PhysicalMaterial
class is intended to provide basic weight computation for the purposes of quantity takeoff and carbon footprint, for example, which are cross-domain functions. This kindOfQuantity for this property is AECU:DENSITY.

RepositoryModel
behaves like a standardInformationModel
and should have been a direct subclass ofInformationModel
. Unfortunately, it subclasses fromDefinitionModel
for legacy reasons that are no longer relevant. However, the system handler (C++) forRepositoryModel
makes it act like a direct subclass ofInformationModel
. Consistent with a standardInformationModel
, allInformationContentElement
instances exceptDefinitionElement
subclasses may be inserted. For backwards compatibility reasons, the superclass ofRepositoryModel
cannot be corrected until a major schema version upgrade.
RoleElement (Role Element) Abstract EntityClass

An Entity is modeled as a bis:RoleElement
when a set of external circumstances define an important role (one that is worth tracking) that is not intrinsic to the Entity playing the role. For example, a person can play the role of a teacher or a rock can play the role of a boundary marker.
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for

The “Spatial Location” perspective is a strict subset of the “Physical” perspective. Spatial locations are massless, but they manifest in the real physical world:
- They may be defined in relation to physical entities, e.g. the air gap between two conductors, the space around an access panel, the volume occupied by a physical Entity, or a surface demarcating a region on the surface of a physical entity.
- They may be used to guide positioning of physical Entities, e.g. grid lines that may be manifested physically on a construction site via chalk lines or laser beams.
- They may be abstractions of physical consequence, like property or political boundaries that are often demarcated in the physical world via markers, signs, or natural boundaries.
The 'Spatial Location' perspective is used by SpatialLocationModel and SpatialLocationElement in order to segregate certain kinds of elements.
In retrospect, the complexity added by introducing a distinct "Spatial Location" perspective may have not been worth the benefit. Our current recommendation is to not instantiate a SpatialLocationPartition, but instead organize spatial locations in the context of the 'physical backbone', i.e. the Physical model hierarchy.
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for
SpatialLocationPartition
ensures that it is only ever sub-modeled by aSpatialLocationModel
.

Subject Sealed EntityClass
A bis:Subject is an information element that references (by name) some real-world Object that will be modeled in this BIS repository.
Base Class: BisCore:InformationReferenceElement
Subject
elements only exist in the RepositoryModel singleton at the root of a BIS Repository. There will be one "root" instance of Subject
that does not have a parent Subject
. Child Subject
elements reference "parts" of the real-world Object referenced by their parent Subject
element.
The hierarchy of Subject
s is not meant to model the root Object's structure, but is a way to express high-level structure that has not been modeled explicitly. Subjects
do not "model" or "represent" or "describe" the Object that they reference. All modeling happens using Elements in the other bis:Models in the BIS Repository.
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for
Subject
will only permit instances to be inserted into theRepositoryModel
. It will require everySubject
except for the "root" to have itsParent
property reference anotherSubject
. The system handler also prevents the "root"Subject
from ever being deleted.

TypeDefinitionElement (Type Definition) Abstract EntityClass
Defines a shared set of properties (the 'type') that can be associated with a bis:Element.
Base Class: BisCore:DefinitionElement
A TypeDefinitionElement
is an implementation of a data normalization strategy and is meant to hold properties that vary per type instead of varying per Element
instance.
Rather than storing the same set of type-specific properties on every Element
instance, each Element
instance will have a set of instance-specific properties (as specified by the Element
class) and a set of related type-specific properties found by joining to the TypeDefinitionElement
instance.
See relationships such as PhysicalElementIsOfType.

Mixins
IParentElement (Parent Element) Abstract Mixin
An interface that can be mixed-into a bis:Element to indicate that it can be a parent (own child Elements). This interface is mutually exclusive with bis:ISubModeledElement.
Applies To: Element
Only subclasses of bis:Element can implement the IParentElement interface
Parent-child modeling differs from sub-modeling in that the parent Element and child Elements are to be considered together in the context of a single Model, whereas a sub-modeled Element is considered independently of its sub-Model. For example, and application would view a parent Element and its child Elements together, but would either view a sub-modeled Element or exclude that Element and instead view the Elements of its sub-Model.
See also ISubModeledElement.
ISubModeledElement (Sub-Modeled Element) Abstract Mixin
An interface that can be mixed-into a bis:Element to indicate that it can be sub-modeled by a finer-grained bis:Model. This interface is mutually exclusive with bis:IParentElement.
Applies To: Element
Sub-modeling is also sometimes described as "breaking down", i.e. a sub-modeled Element can be "broken down into" a finer-grained (sub) Model.
See also IParentElement.
Behavior: The system handler (C++) for
Element
only permits a sub-model to be inserted if the class of the modeled element implements theISubModeledElement
interface.
