#### 8.8.3.4 IfcMaterialProfileSet

| Ensemble de matériaux de profil
| Gruppe von Profilen mit Material

The IfcMaterialProfileSet is a designation by which individual material(s) of a prismatic element (for example, beam or column) constructed of a single or multiple material profiles is known.

> NOTE In case of multiple MaterialProfiles, the relative positioning of individual profiles in IfcMaterialProfileSet are defined using the concept of IfcCompositeProfileDef in IfcProfileResource schema; otherwise, only one MaterialProfile is given and defined by an individual IfcProfileDef (subtype).

> HISTORY New entity in IFC4.
