4.1.7.1.3.1 Axis 2D Geometry

The 'Axis' representation using 'Curve2D' representation type is predominately used to align material layer sets to geometric representations of standard walls.

The following attribute values for the IfcShapeRepresentation holding this geometric representation shall be used:

The following diagram shows the generic classes and relationships used when applying this concept. In addition, concepts may have particular importance to common or standardised industry practices and scenarios. For these specific usage scenarios, the table below shows a recommended list of general usage patterns that users may adopt.
