Introduction
These Content Parts of this International Standard will define standardised properties for the product
groups and the composition of the technical data model. Furthermore, they determine the specific
programming function-interfaces to layout, calculate, and simulate the products.
There is a growing need for information about building services systems during the planning and design
of buildings. The designers in building services have to execute detailed calculations and simulations
to ensure saving of energy and to satisfy hygienic and comfort criteria in heating, ventilation, air
conditioning, and sanitary plants. They have to provide better and better documentation to verify
the compliance with these requirements. The resulting designs have to describe the complete plants
without internal interference or intersection with the building.
These requirements can only be achieved with modern engineering applications like CAD- and CAE-systems,
calculation programs, BIM tools, and management software. The software systems need exact data of the
used plant components. Each component contributes to the performance data of the whole building.
There are many manufacturers, who provide products to certain sectors of building services (such as
heating, ventilation, air conditioning, sanitary). Others provide only certain product groups (radiators,
heaters, air condition equipment, air pipes, valves, devices).
Classical catalogues provide product data in tables and show the design algorithms in diagrams and
design rules. In addition to the technical properties required for functional design and calculation (e.g.
in the form of curve diagrams), such catalogues also contain the geometry data needed for dimensional
design and construction (e.g. in the form of dimensional drawings with port details) and the descriptive
objects serving for visualization (such as photos, video sequences, or acoustical sequences).
Additionally, nearly all big manufacturers provide their own software (mostly for free) as electronic
catalogues to select, to design, and to calculate their products.
Unfortunately, none of these software solutions meets all the requirements of the planner. Needless
to say, that each program contains only the product range of its manufacturer. So it is not possible to
perform a continuous planning of the plant with products of different manufacturers.
Thus, it is desirable to provide engineering applications which are independent from the manufacturers.
The next problem is that data files from different manufacturers — if available at all — are organized in
different data formats, structures, and terminologies.
Independent CAD-systems and calculation software need to get data and algorithms in a uniform way.
Only if product data and algorithms are automatically available, the calculation and simulation of a
complete HVAC plant is possible.
Software providers cannot afford to provide all data from all product manufacturers in the format
required by their system. Also, product manufacturers cannot provide current information about their
products in the formats of all potential software systems. Thus, we have a typical situation where
standardization is required to improve the exchange of information between business partners.
Within single product groups (e.g. radiators), national initiatives to standardize exchange formats have
already been conducted. But there is a lack of unification of existing formats across all product groups.
Required is a uniform, internationally standardised definition for product catalogue data interchange.
Such a definition eliminates the need to manage different data formats and to use different software
systems to deal with products of different manufacturers, and this leads to a significant reduction of costs
for manufacturers and users. Integrating this data into BIM-systems (Building Information Modelling)
allows data interchange between IT systems. In addition, to the benefit for planning, there will be an
amount of advantages for other software solutions, e.g. facility management and life cycle management.
This International Standard offers for the first time an interface which allows the uniform handling of data
about technical, commercial, maintenance, service, as well as geometry, images, video, and text information.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16757-1:2015(E)
Data structures for electronic product catalogues for
building services —
Part 1:
Concepts, architecture and model
1 Scope
The primary purpose of this International Standard is the provision of data structures for electronic
product catalogues to transmit building services product data automatically into models of building
services software applications. This includes a meta model for the specification of product classes
and their properties and a meta model for the product data which is exchanged in product catalogues.
Product data has to follow the specifications for their product groups.
The standard series is split into two areas:
— Basic concepts like conceptual models, languages, geometry representations, and XML schemas for data
exchange are provided in the Conceptual Parts of the standard series (Parts with a one digit number).
— Using these resources, the Content Parts of this International Standard define for various product
groups of building services concrete models for the description and the exchange of products.
The basic concepts which are provided by the standard series include the following:
— resources for the specification of selection properties and a selection property tree guiding the
selection process to identify the appropriate product variant from a parametric electronic catalogue;
— resources for the specification of dependent properties and their computational functions to
compute their values in dependency from installation parameters;
— resources for the specification of composition relationships between products which can be used to
model structures like bill of materials or accessory relationships;
— resources for a parametric constructed solid geometry (CSG) based geometry representation containing
specific CSG elements geometrical elements which are typical for building services products.
This part of ISO 16757 specifies
— the underlying concepts,
— a generic model specifying the available modelling elements and their relationships, and
— a framework for the specification of the Content Parts by describing the elements which are to be
provided by these Parts.
Not in scope of this part of ISO 16757 are the following:
— a detailed description of the used geometrical primitives;
NOTE Geometry is described in ISO 16757-2.
— a specification of the script language used to exchange algorithms for computing the values of
dependent and computable properties;
NOTE The script language is described in ISO 16757-3.

— a specification of the XML Schema specifying the data structures for the catalogue exchange;
NOTE The XML schema is described in ISO 16757-5.
— a description of the relationships to standards of the area of buildingSMART;
NOTE The relationships to standards of the area of buildingSMART is described in ISO 16757-4.
— definition of models for specific product groups.
NOTE 1 Definitions of models for specific product areas are described in ISO 16757-10 et. seq., the Content
Parts of ISO 16757.
NOTE 2 All parts are still under development.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
2.1
accessory
product of the same or of different product groups, which can be attached to a product
Note 1 to entry: An accessory is not a different type of product, it plays an ancillary role to another product.
2.2
accessory hierarchy
representation of the dependencies between products and accessories
2.3
article number
manufacturer’s reference number, GTIN, or other identifier identifying the product or constituents of a
product
2.4
building information modelling
BIM
construction of a model that contains the information about a building for all phases of the building life cycle
Note 1 to entry: In many cases, the abbreviation BIM is also used for the result of the building information
modelling, namely the building information model.
2.5
building services
utilities and installations supplied and distributed within a building such as electricity, gas, heating,
water, and communications
[SOURCE: ISO 16484-2]
2.6
building services system
BSS
technical system that provides building services in a building
[SOURCE: ISO 16484-2]
2.7
BSS property
technical property that describes an aspect of the current state of a BSS
Note 1 to entry: A BSS property cannot get a value in a catalogue because the states of the building services
system are not known and will vary according to the specific system and its various system states.

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 16757-1:2019
ISO 16757-1:2015(E)
EXAMPLE In the example given in 2.10, ‘media volume flow’ and ‘media density’ are BSS properties.
2.8
catalogue metadata
data in the catalogue which contains data about the catalogue itself
EXAMPLE Catalogue metadata include standard numbers, data for version management, the manufacturer’s
name, and global location number, as well as file check details.
2.9
descriptive object
object giving descriptive and/or visual information about the product
EXAMPLE Descriptive objects are pictures, descriptions, videos, etc.
2.10
dynamic property
technical property, that reflects the product’s behaviour under the operating conditions of the building
services system in which the product is installed
EXAMPLE The dynamic property ‘pressure loss of a pipe elbow’ is dependent of the ‘media volume flow’
and the ‘media density’. In a catalogue, the manufacturer of a pipe elbow has to provide a means to allow the
determination of the actual ‘pressure loss’ for various values of ‘media volume flow’ and ‘media density’
Note 1 to entry: A dynamic property does not get a value from a product catalogue because the value of a dynamic
property is dependent on the state of the building services system into which the product will be integrated.
Therefore, the value may vary according to the state. The catalogue normally contains some means which allow
the product user to determine the value of that property in a given state of the building services system.
2.11
facility management
FM
all the services before, during, and after utilisation of real estate properties and infrastructure based
on a holistic (integral) strategy
[SOURCE: ISO 16484-2:2004]
2.12
function
formula
algorithms and formulas for the calculation of computable product properties
Note 1 to entry: The representation of functions and formulae follows a simple program script syntax.

Global Trade Item Number
GTIN
identifier for trade items used to look up product information in a database GS1
2.14
product
orderable, technical entity
2.15
product catalogue
compilation of information about products
Note 1 to entry: A product catalogue can be related by its article numbers to price lists.
2.16

Introduction
These Content Parts of this International Standard will define standardised properties for the product
groups and the composition of the technical data model. Furthermore, they determine the specific
programming function-interfaces to layout, calculate, and simulate the products.
There is a growing need for information about building services systems during the planning and design
of buildings. The designers in building services have to execute detailed calculations and simulations
to ensure saving of energy and to satisfy hygienic and comfort criteria in heating, ventilation, air
conditioning, and sanitary plants. They have to provide better and better documentation to verify
the compliance with these requirements. The resulting designs have to describe the complete plants
without internal interference or intersection with the building.
These requirements can only be achieved with modern engineering applications like CAD- and CAE-systems,
calculation programs, BIM tools, and management software. The software systems need exact data of the
used plant components. Each component contributes to the performance data of the whole building.
There are many manufacturers, who provide products to certain sectors of building services (such as
heating, ventilation, air conditioning, sanitary). Others provide only certain product groups (radiators,
heaters, air condition equipment, air pipes, valves, devices).
Classical catalogues provide product data in tables and show the design algorithms in diagrams and
design rules. In addition to the technical properties required for functional design and calculation (e.g.
in the form of curve diagrams), such catalogues also contain the geometry data needed for dimensional
design and construction (e.g. in the form of dimensional drawings with port details) and the descriptive
objects serving for visualization (such as photos, video sequences, or acoustical sequences).
Additionally, nearly all big manufacturers provide their own software (mostly for free) as electronic
catalogues to select, to design, and to calculate their products.
Unfortunately, none of these software solutions meets all the requirements of the planner. Needless
to say, that each program contains only the product range of its manufacturer. So it is not possible to
perform a continuous planning of the plant with products of different manufacturers.
Thus, it is desirable to provide engineering applications which are independent from the manufacturers.
The next problem is that data files from different manufacturers — if available at all — are organized in
different data formats, structures, and terminologies.
Independent CAD-systems and calculation software need to get data and algorithms in a uniform way.
Only if product data and algorithms are automatically available, the calculation and simulation of a
complete HVAC plant is possible.
Software providers cannot afford to provide all data from all product manufacturers in the format
required by their system. Also, product manufacturers cannot provide current information about their
products in the formats of all potential software systems. Thus, we have a typical situation where
standardization is required to improve the exchange of information between business partners.
Within single product groups (e.g. radiators), national initiatives to standardize exchange formats have
already been conducted. But there is a lack of unification of existing formats across all product groups.
Required is a uniform, internationally standardised definition for product catalogue data interchange.
Such a definition eliminates the need to manage different data formats and to use different software
systems to deal with products of different manufacturers, and this leads to a significant reduction of costs
for manufacturers and users. Integrating this data into BIM-systems (Building Information Modelling)
allows data interchange between IT systems. In addition, to the benefit for planning, there will be an
amount of advantages for other software solutions, e.g. facility management and life cycle management.
This International Standard offers for the first time an interface which allows the uniform handling of data
about technical, commercial, maintenance, service, as well as geometry, images, video, and text information.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16757-1:2015(E)
Data structures for electronic product catalogues for
building services —
Part 1:
Concepts, architecture and model
1 Scope
The primary purpose of this International Standard is the provision of data structures for electronic
product catalogues to transmit building services product data automatically into models of building
services software applications. This includes a meta model for the specification of product classes
and their properties and a meta model for the product data which is exchanged in product catalogues.
Product data has to follow the specifications for their product groups.
The standard series is split into two areas:
— Basic concepts like conceptual models, languages, geometry representations, and XML schemas for data
exchange are provided in the Conceptual Parts of the standard series (Parts with a one digit number).
— Using these resources, the Content Parts of this International Standard define for various product
groups of building services concrete models for the description and the exchange of products.
The basic concepts which are provided by the standard series include the following:
— resources for the specification of selection properties and a selection property tree guiding the
selection process to identify the appropriate product variant from a parametric electronic catalogue;
— resources for the specification of dependent properties and their computational functions to
compute their values in dependency from installation parameters;
— resources for the specification of composition relationships between products which can be used to
model structures like bill of materials or accessory relationships;
— resources for a parametric constructed solid geometry (CSG) based geometry representation containing
specific CSG elements geometrical elements which are typical for building services products.
This part of ISO 16757 specifies
— the underlying concepts,
— a generic model specifying the available modelling elements and their relationships, and
— a framework for the specification of the Content Parts by describing the elements which are to be
provided by these Parts.
Not in scope of this part of ISO 16757 are the following:
— a detailed description of the used geometrical primitives;
NOTE Geometry is described in ISO 16757-2.
— a specification of the script language used to exchange algorithms for computing the values of
dependent and computable properties;
NOTE The script language is described in ISO 16757-3.

NOTE The XML schema is described in ISO 16757-5.
— a description of the relationships to standards of the area of buildingSMART;
NOTE The relationships to standards of the area of buildingSMART is described in ISO 16757-4.
— definition of models for specific product groups.
NOTE 1 Definitions of models for specific product areas are described in ISO 16757-10 et. seq., the Content
Parts of ISO 16757.
NOTE 2 All parts are still under development.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
2.1
accessory
product of the same or of different product groups, which can be attached to a product
Note 1 to entry: An accessory is not a different type of product, it plays an ancillary role to another product.
2.2
accessory hierarchy
representation of the dependencies between products and accessories
2.3
article number
manufacturer’s reference number, GTIN, or other identifier identifying the product or constituents of a
product
2.4
building information modelling
BIM
construction of a model that contains the information about a building for all phases of the building life cycle
Note 1 to entry: In many cases, the abbreviation BIM is also used for the result of the building information
modelling, namely the building information model.
2.5
building services
utilities and installations supplied and distributed within a building such as electricity, gas, heating,
water, and communications
[SOURCE: ISO 16484-2]
2.6
building services system
BSS
technical system that provides building services in a building
[SOURCE: ISO 16484-2]
2.7
BSS property
technical property that describes an aspect of the current state of a BSS
Note 1 to entry: A BSS property cannot get a value in a catalogue because the states of the building services
system are not known and will vary according to the specific system and its various system states.

ISO 16757-1:2015(E)
EXAMPLE In the example given in 2.10, ‘media volume flow’ and ‘media density’ are BSS properties.
2.8
catalogue metadata
data in the catalogue which contains data about the catalogue itself
EXAMPLE Catalogue metadata include standard numbers, data for version management, the manufacturer’s
name, and global location number, as well as file check details.
2.9
descriptive object
object giving descriptive and/or visual information about the product
EXAMPLE Descriptive objects are pictures, descriptions, videos, etc.
2.10
dynamic property
technical property, that reflects the product’s behaviour under the operating conditions of the building
services system in which the product is installed
EXAMPLE The dynamic property ‘pressure loss of a pipe elbow’ is dependent of the ‘media volume flow’
and the ‘media density’. In a catalogue, the manufacturer of a pipe elbow has to provide a means to allow the
determination of the actual ‘pressure loss’ for various values of ‘media volume flow’ and ‘media density’
Note 1 to entry: A dynamic property does not get a value from a product catalogue because the value of a dynamic
property is dependent on the state of the building services system into which the product will be integrated.
Therefore, the value may vary according to the state. The catalogue normally contains some means which allow
the product user to determine the value of that property in a given state of the building services system.
2.11
facility management
FM
all the services before, during, and after utilisation of real estate properties and infrastructure based
on a holistic (integral) strategy

property which is used for the selection of a certain product from the product variants of the catalogue
2.23
technical property
property which is used to represent technical data and functions for designing, calculating, and
simulating the product
Note 1 to entry: Technical properties comprise static and dynamic technical properties.
3 Requirements and fundamentals
The strategic interest of this International Standard is the provision of product data for design,
calculation, and simulation of Building Services systems within engineering application models. This
means it is necessary to exchange machine-readable product data from manufacturers to engineering
applications and to building information models in an automatic way.
Basically, the products are described by three elements (see Figure 1):
— property values;
— representation objects (like geometry);
— descriptive objects (like text documents, pictures, etc.).
In addition, products can be supplemented by a number of accessories which can be optionally selected
in addition to the product itself. Which and how many accessories belong to a product is described by
specific rules.
The properties which are used to describe a product have to be defined in a standard (one exception
are the catalogue-specific selection properties; see below). The purpose of the Content Parts of this
International Standard is exactly the definition of these properties. In Figure 1, which gives a high-

level overview about the modelling levels of this International Standard, the meta model on the left side
specifies which kinds of properties can be defined for a product group. A Content Part of this International
Standard for a product group has to specify which properties are required for the representation of
products of this product group. Thus, it will define properties of the various kinds shown in Figure 1;
technically speaking, it will provide an instance of the meta model. The various kinds of properties are
described below.
On the right side of Figure 1, the elements are shown which make up an ISO 16757 product catalogue.
All elements which belong to a product class are grouped under a ClassElements object which is related
to the respective ProductClass (see Figure 1). The property values in the catalogue belong to a property
which has been defined in the respective Content Part for the product group the product belongs to (not
explicitly shown in Figure 1). Some (selection) properties are catalogue specific; their definition will be
provided in the catalogue and they are only applicable for that catalogue.
Figure 1 — Overview about the elements of a catalogue and the kinds of properties
The diagram in Figure 1, as well as the diagrams in a number of further figures, is drawn by use of the
Unified Modelling Language (UML) class diagrams (see ISO/IEC 19505-1). The following semantics is
assumed for the relationships:
Subclass relationship (is-a)

Composition relationship (sub-object belongs physically to the upper object)
Aggregation relationship (sub-object belongs logically to the upper object)
Properties of different kinds have different roles:
— Technical properties describe those values which are used as basic parameters in the simulation
and the design of building services systems. Technical properties can be static or dynamic, i.e.
dependent of parameters of the building service system in which the product is being installed.
Dynamic properties provide a function specification giving the parameters from which the actual
value of the property depends.
— Selection properties are used to select a single product from a catalogue which often contains more
than a million products of similar kind. By specifying all applicable selection properties, a product
has been identified. Selection properties might be catalogue specific.
— Information about the catalogue itself and its administration is transmitted by values of catalogue
metadata (not shown in Figure 1).
These different kinds of properties and the related objects will be described in more detail in the
following clauses. In this clause, the decisions taken for the definition of these properties and objects
will be motivated.
3.1 Content of a catalogue
An ISO 16757 catalogue (in the following just called a catalogue) is an electronic catalogue containing
at least one product, but normally many products. The product groups which can be transmitted in
ISO 16757 catalogues will be defined in ISO 16757-10 et seq., the Content Parts.
Accessories normally belong to a different product group as the main product. They can be described in
separate product catalogues. Products outside the catalogue can be referenced from inside the catalogue.
Therefore, the identification and the name of the data entity (e.g. the data file) of the external catalogue
has to be included into the reference. It i
