Description

https://forums.buildingsmart.org/t/why-is-there-inconsistent-naming-for-construction-resources/3551

Propose to remove Construction prefix. Adds no value. Also used in FM usecases.

Classes on the left have a construction prefix. Classes on the right do not. Why?

Two of the non-prefixed classes are hinted to be “root-level”. Is IfcLaborResource also potentially a root-level? Should the prefixes be there, if the parent already says IfcConstructionResource?
