IfcStructuralSteelProfileProperties

Definition from IAI: This is a collection of structural properties applicable to all linear structural members having a profile definition. These structural members are made of steel (or other metalic and isotropic material).

HISTORY: New entity in Release IFC2x Edition 2.

EXPRESS specification:

ENTITY IfcStructuralSteelProfileProperties
SUBTYPE OF ( IfcStructuralProfileProperties);
ShearAreaZ  :  OPTIONAL IfcAreaMeasure;
ShearAreaY  :  OPTIONAL IfcAreaMeasure;
PlasticShapeFactorY  :  OPTIONAL IfcPositiveRatioMeasure;
PlasticShapeFactorZ  :  OPTIONAL IfcPositiveRatioMeasure;
WHERE
WR31  :  NOT(EXISTS(ShearAreaY)) OR (ShearAreaY >= 0.);
WR32  :  NOT(EXISTS(ShearAreaZ)) OR (ShearAreaZ >= 0.);
END_ENTITY;

Attribute definitions:

ShearAreaZ  :  Area of the profile for calculating the shear stress for a shear force parallel to the profile’s Z-axis. Usually measured in [mm2].
ShearAreaY  :  Area of the profile for calculating the shear stress for a shear force parallel to the profile’s Y-axis. Usually measured in [mm2].
PlasticShapeFactorY  :  Ratio of plastic versus elastic bending moment capacity (about y-axis) of the profile.
PlasticShapeFactorZ  :  Ratio of plastic versus elastic bending moment capacity (about z-axis) of the profile.
