Introduction
ISO 10303 is an International Standard for the computer‐interpretable representation and exchange of
product data. The objective is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing product data
throughout the life cycle of a product and independent from any particular system. The nature of this
description makes it suitable not only for neutral file exchange, but also as a basis for implementing and
sharing product databases and archiving.
This document defines the context, scope and information requirements for properties of products that
can be used for product design and design validation and other purposes, the testing, measurement and
approval processes used to determine those properties and specifies the integrated resources
necessary to satisfy these requirements.
Clause 1 defines the scope and summarises the functionality and data covered by this document. Clause
3 lists the words defined in this document and gives pointers to words defined elsewhere. An
application activity model that is the basis for the definition of the scope is provided in Annex F. The
information requirements for the application are specified in Clause 4, using terminology appropriate to
the application. A graphical representation of the information requirements, referred to as the
application reference model (ARM), is given in Annex G.
Resource constructs from the Integrated Generic Resource Model are interpreted to meet the
information requirements of this application and produce the application interpreted model (AIM). This
interpretation, given in 5.1, shows the correspondence between the information requirements and the
AIM. The short listing of the AIM specifies the interface to the integrated resources and is given in 5.2.
Note that the definitions and EXPRESS provided in the integrated resources for constructs used in the
AIM can include items in select lists and subtypes that are not imported into the AIM. The expanded
listing given in Annex A contains the complete EXPRESS schema for the AIM without annotation. A
graphical representation of the AIM is given in Annex H. Additional requirements for specific
implementation methods are given in Annex C.
Engineering properties, which include materials properties, are not fundamental constants derived
from physical or chemical laws. The understanding of an engineering property of a product is
dependent on the process used to measure the property value and the value is dependent on the
conditions used in that process.
If properties that are based on fundamental physical or chemical behaviour, such as latent heat or
melting temperature, are measured by different methods, then the results obtained are usually
sufficiently similar to be regarded as a single value. A method used for measuring an engineering
property attempts to simulate the behaviour of a product in an engineering situation in the real world.
Each aspect of behaviour, for example the hardness of a product, can be simulated by several different
methods. The methods are usually designed to be convenient to use and to provide a consistent result
from repeated measurements. However, the difference between physical or chemical properties of a
substance and the engineering properties of a product is that if different methods are used to measure
an engineering property, then different results are obtained. For example, the measurement of the
elongation property attempts to provide a numerical value to represent the engineering concept of
plastic ductility by stretching a specially shaped sample of a product by applying a uniaxial tensile load.
The value of the elongation property is determined as a percentage of the original length of a portion of
a sample piece of the product. Comparisons between values of the elongation property for different
products are therefore only possible if the fixed length was the same for each case. It is therefore
necessary to state this length explicitly for all values of the elongation property.
An engineering property is therefore the result from operating a specific test method in a specific
manner and it is necessary to associate the value of an engineering property with the conditions in
which it is valid, in order for the meaning of the value to be explicitly determined. This additional
vi © ISO 2019 – All rights reserved

information is called the data environment in ISO 10303‐45. An alternative term that is often used is
metadata ‐ i.e. data about data.
In most communications of engineering data, the relationship of a property value to its data
environment or metadata is often an implicit assumption and it might not be explicitly associated with
the value. The purpose of this document is to provide the means to associate a property value explicitly
to the conditions in which it was measured, and thus provide an audit trail to the origins of data values
that can be used in product design.
In order to measure the properties of a product, it is sometimes possible to test the whole product but
usually this is not possible and a sample of a product has be taken to represent the bulk of the product.
The procedure for taking this sample can be specified in a regulatory document, such as a quality
manual, or in a standard. The operation of the testing apparatus and the measurement procedure can
require that the item that is tested has a specific shape and dimensions, and it will be necessary to
create this from the product sample by some manufacturing process. The result of this process can be
called a test piece. The specific shape and dimensions of test pieces can also be defined in standards or
other regulatory documents. The measurement of the engineering property is then carried out on the
test piece by means of some measuring apparatus or testing machine, whose operation might need to be
controlled to be within specified limits. Manufactured products can be assemblies or single products,
but they are rarely homogeneous or isotropic in their properties, so it is necessary to know the
relationships between the test piece, the sample and the original product if the results of the
measurement need to be related to the original product.
Data produced by a testing or measurement process is rarely used in its original form. It is necessary to
first evaluate data values by some process in order to determine if the conditions prescribed for a
particular test method have been met. For many properties, such as fracture toughness as an example,
the validity of a test result can only be determined by an evaluation process after all the measurements
have been completed and that process is specified in the standard that describes how to make the
measurement. Individual results are rarely used as single values, but can be combined or processed in
some way to provide a collective result that is indicative of the results of a series of measurements. It is
necessary to identify the most likely value of the collection and to provide the uncertainty associated
with this value.
The validity of a test result can be established by an approval procedure which results in the issue of a
certificate. The certificate affirms that the original product from which the sample was taken conforms
to a particular requirement or specification, and that the tests used to determine this were carried out
in an approved manner. The data obtained from a valid test can also be subject to a further approval
procedure that confirms the suitability of property values for the design of a functional product. This
procedure will use criteria for the approval based on the requirements that the product needs to satisfy.
The approval process and the criteria can be established and administered by an independent
regulatory body or authority.
Test data values are not used for design because they often represent a condition of failure of the test
piece. Design values are derived from the test data to represent a condition in which it is safe to use the
product, and it is also advisable to record explicitly the procedures by which a design value is derived.
Further testing can be required to measure the design values.
The number of different engineering properties and test methods is too large for every property and
test method to be included in this document. There are also differences in test methods, and therefore
differences in the engineering meaning of the properties, between different national engineering
systems. Provision has therefore been made for the names of test methods and their association with
particular properties to be defined in computer‐processable dictionaries conforming to ISO 13584 Parts
Libraries, or defined in a referenced document. An entry in such a dictionary can be referenced from the
information model in this document in order to make use of a particular property name associated with
a particular measurement method.
© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved vii

The benefit of this approach is that, with appropriate dictionaries to define test methods and their
relevant property names, this document can be used for the representation of any engineering property
measured by any method, provided that those methods and properties are defined in a computer
processable dictionary. The application of this document therefore extends to other engineering
domains and is not restricted to materials. Other applications could include the results of
measurements of environmental data, for example.
Figure 1 shows a high level view of the concept of this document. Figure 2 shows the high‐level view of
a process. Further information on the application of product data technology to materials information,
as examples of engineering properties can be found in Reference [1] in the Bibliography.
