Not all faces have a references,  many time I have allot of faces more than I see in the element. 

Alwayes I check planerface reference if != null then I consider in my reference array

To reply to your question 

1) check if planerface reference is not equal null

2) classify the planerface according to their directions 

3) collect reference array for each direction separate 

4) Run newdimension class

Hope if above cover your question
