IfcSweptAreaSolid
Definition from ISO/CD 10303-42:1992: The swept area solid entity
collects the entities which are defined procedurally by sweeping action on
planar bounded surfaces. The position is space of the swept solid will be
dependent upon the position of the swept area. The swept area will be a face of
the resulting swept area solid, except for the case of a revolved area solid
with angle equal to 2 p (or 360 degrees).
Definition from IAI: The swept area is defined by a cross section
(also referred to as profile), which is given as a closed two-dimensional
boundary on an implicit plane. The swept area is defined in the xy plane of the
position coordinate system, which is given for the swept area solid.
NOTE Corresponding STEP entity:
swept_area_solid, The data type of SweptArea is modified and given by a
profile definition (IfcProfileDef). A position coordinate system is
defined by the Position attribute has been added. Please refer to ISO/IS
10303-42:1994, p. 183 for the final definition of the formal standard.
HISTORY New entity in IFC Release 1.5,
the capabilities have been enhanced in IFC Release 2x.
