IfcUShapeProfileDef defines a section profile that provides the defining parameters of a U-shape (channel) section to be used by the swept area solid. Its parameters and orientation relative to the position coordinate system are according to the following illustration. The centre of the position coordinate system is in the profile's centre of the bounding box.
HISTORY New entity in IFC2x2.
IFC2x3 CHANGE All profile origins are now in the center of the bounding box.
IFC4 CHANGE Type of FilletRadius and EdgeRadius relaxed to allow for zero radius. Trailing attribute CentreOfGravityInX deleted, use respective property in IfcExtendedProfileProperties instead.
Figure 401 illustrates parameters of the U-shape profile definition.
