Description

The documentation [here ](https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/lexical/IfcReinforcingBar.htm)states:

"The representation map of a mapped 'Body' representation should contain a representation of type 'AdvancedSweptSolid' which holds an [IfcSweptDiskSolid](https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/lexical/IfcSweptDiskSolid.htm) (including subtype [IfcSweptDiskSolidPolygonal](https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/lexical/IfcSweptDiskSolidPolygonal.htm))."

but the [sample file](https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/annex_e/building-elements/reinforcing-assembly.html) uses type "SolidModel"

Research direction

Compare the IfcReinforcingBar page with the linked reinforcing-assembly sample file, focusing on the stated representation type and the type used in the example. Check the IFC4x3 specification context, then update the incorrect documentation or sample so both agree and verify the rendered pages show the same type.
