ifcopenshell.api.sequence.edit_lag_time.edit_lag_time(file: ifcopenshell.file, lag_time: ifcopenshell.entity_instance, attributes: dict[str, Any]) → None

Edits the attributes of an IfcLagTime

For more information about the attributes and data types of an IfcLagTime, consult the IFC documentation.

Parameters:

• lag_time (ifcopenshell.entity_instance) – The IfcLagTime entity you want to edit

• attributes (dict) – a dictionary of attribute names and values.

Returns:

None

Return type:

None

Example:

# Let's imagine we are creating a construction schedule. All tasks
# need to be part of a work schedule.
schedule = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_work_schedule(model, name="Construction Schedule A")

# Let's imagine a root construction task
construction = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_task(model,
    work_schedule=schedule, name="Construction", identification="C")

# Let's imagine we're doing a typically formwork, reinforcement,
# pour sequence. Let's start with the formwork. It'll take us 2
# days.
formwork = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_task(model,
    parent_task=construction, name="Formwork", identification="C.1")
time = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_task_time(model, task=formwork)
ifcopenshell.api.sequence.edit_task_time(model,
    task_time=time, attributes={"ScheduleStart": "2000-01-01", "ScheduleDuration": "P2D"})

# Now let's do the reinforcement. It'll take us another 2 days.
reinforcement = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_task(model,
    parent_task=construction, name="Reinforcement", identification="C.2")
time = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.add_task_time(model, task=reinforcement)
ifcopenshell.api.sequence.edit_task_time(model,
    task_time=time, attributes={"ScheduleStart": "2000-01-01", "ScheduleDuration": "P2D"})

# Now let's say the formwork must finish before the reinforcement
# can start. This is a typical finish to start relationship (FS).
sequence = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.assign_sequence(model,
    relating_process=formwork, related_process=reinforcement)

# Now typically there would be no lag time between formwork and
# reinforcement, but let's pretend that we had to allow 1 day gap
# for whatever reason.
lag = ifcopenshell.api.sequence.assign_lag_time(model, rel_sequence=sequence, lag_value="P1D")

# Or, let's make it 2 days instead.
ifcopenshell.api.sequence.edit_lag_time(model, lag_time=lag, attributes={"LagValue": "P2D"})
