 | SIUnit |
 | Unité du système international |
The IfcSIUnit covers both standard base SI units such as meter and second, and derived SI units such as Pascal, square meter and cubic meter.
NOTE Definition according to ISO/CD 10303-41:1992
An SI unit is the fixed quantity used as a standard in terms of which items are measured as defined by ISO 1000 (clause 2).
NOTE Corresponding ISO 10303 name: si_unit, please refer to ISO/IS 10303-41 for the final definition of the formal standard.
HISTORY New entity in IFC1.5.1.
