Name	Type	Description
DynamicViscosity	P_SINGLEVALUE / IfcDynamicViscosityMeasure	Dynamic Viscosity A measure of the viscous resistance of the material.
YoungModulus	P_SINGLEVALUE / IfcModulusOfElasticityMeasure	Young Modulus A measure of the Young's modulus of elasticity of the material.
ShearModulus	P_SINGLEVALUE / IfcModulusOfElasticityMeasure	Shear Modulus A measure of the shear modulus of elasticity of the material.
PoissonRatio	P_SINGLEVALUE / IfcPositiveRatioMeasure	Poisson Ratio A measure of the lateral deformations in the elastic range.
ThermalExpansionCoefficient	P_SINGLEVALUE / IfcThermalExpansionCoefficientMeasure	Thermal Expansion Coefficient Quantity characterizing the variation with thermodynamic temperature T of the distance l between two points of a body, under given conditions (IEC 113-04-27). The ratio is defined per Kelvin.
