Use Definitions
Each instance of IfcCostValue may also have a CostType. There are many
possible types of cost value that may be identified. Whilst there is a broad
understanding of the meaning of names that may be assigned to different types
of costs, there is no general standard for naming cost types nor are there any
broadly defined classifications. To allow for any type of cost value, the
IfcLabel datatype is assigned. The following defines some cost types that might
be applied:
| Annual rate of return |
Lease |
Replacement |
| Bonus |
List price |
Sale |
| Bulk purchase rebate |
Maintenance |
Small quantity surcharge |
| Contract |
Material |
Spares |
| Consultancy |
Overhead |
Storage |
| Delivery |
Postage and packing |
Sub-Contract |
| Estimated cost |
Profit |
Trade discount |
| Hire |
Purchase |
Transportation |
| Installation |
Rental |
Waste allowance |
| Interest rate |
Repair |
Whole life |
| Labor |
|
|
In the absence of any well-defined standard, it is recommended that
local agreements should be made to define allowable and understandable cost
value types within a project or region.
