IfcStructuralLoadSingleDisplacementDistortion

Definition from IAI: Instances of the entity IfcStructuralLoadSingleForceWarping, as a subtype of IfcStructuralLoadSingleForce, shall be used to define an action opertion on a single point. In addition to forces and moments defined by its supertype a warping moment can be defined.

All values are given within the chosen coordinate system of the 'activity element' (subtypes of IfcStructuralActivity), either the local coordinate system of the activity element or the global project coordinate system which is referenced by the activity element as its geometric representation context. The units of the displacement and rotation values are given within the global unit assignment (IfcUnitAssignment).

HISTORY: New entity in Release IFC2x edition 2.

EXPRESS specification:

ENTITY IfcStructuralLoadSingleDisplacementDistortion
SUBTYPE OF ( IfcStructuralLoadSingleDisplacement);
Distortion  :  OPTIONAL IfcCurvatureMeasure;
END_ENTITY;

Attribute definitions:

Distortion  :  The distortion curvature given to the displacement load.
