IfcSurfaceReinforcementArea (3)
2 SurfaceReinforcement1 OPTIONAL LIST [2:3] OF IfcLengthMeasure

Reinforcement at the face of the member which is located at the side of the positive local z direction of the surface member. Specified as area per length, e.g. square metre per metre (hence length measure, e.g. metre). The reinforcement area may be specified for two or three directions of reinforcement bars.

3 SurfaceReinforcement2 OPTIONAL LIST [2:3] OF IfcLengthMeasure

Reinforcement at the face of the member which is located at the side of the negative local z direction of the surface member. Specified as area per length, e.g. square metre per metre (hence length measure, e.g. metre). The reinforcement area may be specified for two or three directions of reinforcement bars.

4 ShearReinforcement OPTIONAL IfcRatioMeasure

Shear reinforcement. Specified as area per area, e.g. square metre per square metre (hence ratio measure, i.e. unitless).
