#### 8.16.5.1 IfcRepresentationContextSameWCS

If there are several instances of IfcGeometricRepresentationContext within one project file, the XY plane of all WorldCoordinateSystem's shall be coplanar and identical.

> NOTE The instances of IfcGeometricRepresentationSubContext do not define their own world coordinate system, they refer to the world coordinate system of the ParentContext.

> HISTORY New global rule in Release IFC2x
