The $W$-valued distance on a building: a function $\delta : \mathrm{Cham}(X)^2 \to W$ taking values in a Coxeter group $W$, with $\delta(C, C) = 1$, satisfying $\ell(\delta(C, D)) = d(C, D)$, and compatible with the natural Coxeter labeling of each apartment via an isomorphism.

Instances For
A retraction $\bar\rho$ onto an apartment $A$ centered at $C$ exists and preserves the $W$-valued distance from $C$ (and to $C$), fixes $A$ pointwise, and sends adjacent chambers to equal-or-adjacent chambers.
The $W$-valued distance from a fixed chamber $C$ is injective on chambers of any apartment containing $C$.
Folding preserves the $W$-valued distance from the center chamber: if a folding fixes $C$, then $\delta(C, f(D)) = \delta(C, D)$ for the fold image.
The canonical retraction $\bar\rho$ agrees with any partial $\delta$- preserving isometry $f : Y \to A$ on its domain.
A strong isometry $f : Y \to f(Y)$ between sets of chambers is a bijection that preserves the $W$-valued distance $\delta$.
Instances For
Existence of a retraction extending a strong isometry $f : Y \to A$ into an apartment: the retraction agrees with $f^{-1}$ on $f(Y)$.
One-step extension of a strong isometry: an adjacent chamber $C' \in A$ not yet in $f(Y)$ admits a strong-isometric extension on $f(Y) \cup \{C'\}$ agreeing with $f^{-1}$ on $f(Y)$.
