Description

Aggregates are covered by MaxAggregateSize. Admixture type are covered by AdmixturesDescription (e.g. superplastisizer), and perhaps should also have an AdmixturesAmount (volume measure) to be complete.

Notably missing is information about the binder (cement) which is used for sustainability analysis.

Proposal:

- Add AdmixturesAmount as IfcVolumeMeasure
- Add BinderDescription as IfcText (e.g. cement, fly ash, etc)
- Add BinderAmount as IfcMassDensityMeasure
