It shall be possible to represent all typical geometrical members using swept solid presentation. This includes straight, curved and tapered members, as well as members with multiple corner points (polybeams). [Probably IfcSectionedSpine could be the solution.]

For DHV in general, and for the RV where "members" means beams and columns, that seems achievable.

Though in the RV, anything with voids (walls, slabs, etc.) would need face-based models as CSG is out of scope.

SolidModel Geometry is in scope is as follows:
