5.4.2.6.1 Semantic definition
This enumeration identifies different types of built systems.
5.4.2.6.2 Type values
| Type | Description | 
|---|---|
EROSIONPREVENTION
 | 
 A grouping of elements into a built system for preventing unwanted relocation of material particles in earthworks slopes or rock faces. Typical types of erosion prevention include: 
  | 
FENESTRATION
 | 
 System of doors, windows, and other fillings in openings in a built envelope that are designed to permit the passage of air or light.  | 
FOUNDATION
 | 
 System of shallow and deep foundation elements that transmit forces to the supporting ground.  | 
LOADBEARING
 | 
 System of built elements that transmit forces and stiffen the construction.  | 
MOORING
 | 
 System of components and elements responsible for keeping or holding an element (a vessel, platform or set of catenary lines) in a desired position.  | 
OUTERSHELL
 | 
 System of built elements that provide the outer skin to protect the construction (such as the facade).  | 
PRESTRESSING
 | 
 System of elements providing pre-stressing to the structure, including typically manufactured products such as tendons, anchorages (active, dead, coupling), ducts, vents and deviators, and in-situ concrete segments, tendon spacers, blisters and additional reinforcements.  | 
RAILWAYLINE
 | 
 A set of functional tracks with explicit terminals. It is usually composed of a set of tracks with continuous track parts and alignments.  | 
RAILWAYTRACK
 | 
 Railway track system. It is usually composed of continuous sequences of track parts and alignments.  | 
REINFORCING
 | 
 System of elements providing reinforcing to the structure.  | 
SHADING
 | 
 System of shading elements (external or internal) that permits the limitation or control of impact of natural sun light.  | 
TRACKCIRCUIT
 | 
 A track circuit is an electric circuit of which the rails of a track section form a part, with usually a source of current connected at one end and a detection device at the other end for detecting whether this track section is clear or occupied by a vehicle. In a continuous signalling system, the track circuit can be used to transmit information between the ground and the train. Note: definition from IEC 60050-82.  | 
TRANSPORT
 | 
 System of all transport elements in a facility that enable the transport of people or goods.  | 
USERDEFINED
 | 
 User-defined type  | 
NOTDEFINED
 | 
 Undefined type.  |
