IfcConstraintRelationship

Definition from IAI: An IfcConstraintRelationship is an objectified relationship that enables instances of IfcConstraint and its subtypes to be associated to each other.

EXAMPLE: Certain constraints related to an IfcWall may be derived from a constraint related to an IfcSpace.
NOTE: Logical aggregation of instances of IfcConstraint and its subtypes is handled by another objectified relationship: IfcConstraintAggregationRelationship
