8.9.3.55 IfcRectangularTrimmedSurface

8.9.3.55.1 Semantic definition

The IfcRectangularTrimmedSurface is a surface created by bounding its BasisSurface along two pairs of parallel curves defined within the parametric space of the referenced surface.

Informal Propositions

  1. The domain of the trimmed surface shall be within the domain of the surface being trimmed.
