Description | ADDED | |||
Category | ADDED |
IfcMaterial is a homogeneous or inhomogeneous substance that can be used to form elements (physical products or their components).
IfcMaterial is the basic entity for material designation and definition; this includes identification by name and classification (via reference to an external classification), as well as association of material properties (isotropic or anisotropic) defined by (subtypes of) IfcMaterialProperties. An instance of IfcMaterial may be associated to an element or element type using the IfcRelAssociatesMaterial relationship. The assignment might either be direct as a single material information, or via
An IfcMaterial may also have presentation information associated. Such presentation information is provided by IfcMaterialDefinitionRepresentation, associating curve styles, hatching definitions or surface colouring/rendering information to a material.
HISTORY聽New entity in IFC4
IFC4 CHANGE聽 The attributes Description and Category have been added.
# | Attribute | Type | Cardinality | Description | G |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Name | IfcLabel |
Name of the material.
EXAMPLE A view definition may require Material.Name to uniquely specify e.g. concrete or steel grade, in which case the attribute Material.Category could take the value 'Concrete' or 'Steel'. NOTE Material grade may have different meaning in different view definitions, e.g. strength grade for structural design and analysis, or visible appearance grade in architectural application. Also, more elaborate material grade definition may be associated as classification via inverse attribute HasExternalReferences. | X | |
2 | Description | IfcText | ? |
Definition of the material in more descriptive terms than given by attributes Name or Category.
IFC4 CHANGE The attribute has been added at the end of attribute list. | X |
3 | Category | IfcLabel | ? |
Definition of the category (group or type) of material, in more general terms than given by attribute Name.
EXAMPLE A view definition may require each Material.Name to be unique, e.g. for each concrete or steel grade used in a project, in which case Material.Category could take the values 'Concrete' or 'Steel'. IFC4 CHANGE The attribute has been added at the end of attribute list. | X |
HasRepresentation | IfcMaterialDefinitionRepresentation @RepresentedMaterial | S[0:1] | Reference to the IfcMaterialDefinitionRepresentation that provides presentation information to a representation common to this material in style definitions.
