Description
  • Quantity Kind is any observable property that can be quantified numerically. Familiar examples include physical properties such as length, mass, time, force, energy, power, electric charge, etc. Less familiar examples include currency, interest rate, price to earning ratio, and information capacity. (source: QUDT)

    Whenever applicable, instances of qudt:QuantityKind from the QUDT Quantity Kind vocabulary should be reused QUDT Quantity Kind vocabulary

    This AEC3PO module defines c3po:QuantityKind as an equivalent to qudt:QuantityKind , and some instances that a relevant for the AEC3PO domain.

  • A set of values for quantity kinds. AEC3PO includes a set of values for this nomenclature.

Description

A Quantity Kind is any observable property that can be quantified numerically. Familiar examples include physical properties such as length, mass, time, force, energy, power, electric charge, etc. Less familiar examples include currency, interest rate, price to earning ratio, and information capacity.

It is expected that the property kinds are organized in a hierarchy of concepts using skos:broader / skos:narrower .

Property kinds may be taken from the QUDT Quantity Kind vocabulary

Example
Length, Area, U-Value.
Note

Maxime Lefrançois argues that both qudt:QuantityKind and qudt:QuantityValue are aligned to dul:Region. A dimensional space such as "Length" or "Thermal Transmittance" is a maximal Region, and a specific quantity value such as "13 m" or "3.5 W/(m^2.K)" is a minimal Region.
