Dear team
I already created walls, doors, windows with xbim library, but I faced space problem.

as you can see above images, I think space should be generated with faced walls, windows, doors, etc not manually.
I researched several documentations, but couldn't find what I want.
I will appreciate if you help me asap.
Best regards.

Are you developing some kind of native IFC editor based on the Toolkit? I would be very interested if that is the case.

Space geometry is usually independent of the bounding elements in IFC. However, it doesn't need to be manually created. And usually, it is created automatically by the authoring tools. You can certainly use the geometry of the wall and other elements to compute the geometry of the space. Also, you may want to use semantic relations to describe which walls (and other elements) form the boundary of the space. IfcRelSpaceBoundary page also describes some concepts around the geometry and possible representations of the space boundaries.

This is one of the images from that page:
