14Ifc Extensibility
The IFC is an extensible schema that allows
growth and refinement.
Each release responds to user input and
specialized domains within AEC such as precast
The current production release is 2.x3, with 2.x4
in alpha release.
The Georgia tech team has identified some
extensions needed for precast.
