4.2.246 General_shape_dependent_property

A General_shape_dependent_property is a user-defined characteristic of an object. The 'property_value' specified by a General_shape_dependent_property is derived from geometry.

NOTE The General_shape_dependent_property may be used for the purpose of validation of geometric models.

EXAMPLE If a geometry model is exchanged between two partners, the calculation of various properties of the bodies, such as centre of mass, overall surface, or overall volume, is performed by originator and recipient. When comparing these set of values, the existence of deficiencies in the received model can be easily detected.

A General_shape_dependent_property is a type of Shape_dependent_property.

The data associated with a General_shape_dependent_property are the following:

4.2.246.1 property_type

The property_type defines the type of characteristic that is specified for an object.

The following values shall be used:

4.2.246.2 property_value

The property_value specifies the value that is given for a particular characteristic.

4.2.246.3 unit_component

The unit_component specifies the unit in which the General_shape_dependent_property is expressed.

The unit_component need not be specified for a particular General_shape_dependent_property.
