Entity definition

An IfcBoundedSurface is a surface of finite area.

NOTE  Definition according to ISO/CD 10303-42:1992
A bounded surface is a surface of finite area with identifiable boundaries.
NOTE  Entity adapted from bounded_surface defined in ISO10303-42.
HISTORY  New entity in IFC2x
IFC4 CHANGE Entity made abstract.

Informal Propositions:

  1. A bounded surface has finite non-zero surface area.
  2. A bounded surface has boundary curves.
