It's in IFC4 AU Library.ifc here https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpen ... /libraries

There is an example of it used here https://youtu.be/ewvlodE1Nxg?t=620

It doesn't use BOLTS, however I'm proposing to add these dimensions to BOLTS so that it can use BOLTS :) After all, for a lot of architectural design the exact style of the annotation doesn't matter, but it is incredibly useful to know typical dims for furniture.

The steel libraries use BOLTS, naturally :)

In any case right now as an IFC library FreeCAD in theory can still make use of it.
