Overview
ISO/TS 10303-436:2006 is an application module in the ISO 10303 (STEP) family that supports the AP236 furniture catalog and interior design application protocol. It defines reusable data structures and semantics for representing furniture catalog product data, interior decoration projects and associated geometry for reliable product data representation and exchange. The module enables consistent catalog definitions, configurable products, multi-language support, pricing and geometric validation to support downstream design, manufacturing and e‑commerce workflows.
Key Topics and Requirements
This application module covers technical topics and requirements including:
- Catalog product data representation: product definitions, classification, specifications, dimensions and associated documents.
- Product structure, variants and options: support for configurable items, variant management and product configuration rules.
- Pricing and identification: price lists tied to product identification and characteristics.
- Status, effectivity and approval: multi-state approval status and effectivity conditions for data validation and lifecycle control.
- Multi-language support: localized product labels, descriptions and metadata for international catalogs.
- Geometry representations: support for multiple geometry models such as:
- Advanced Boundary Representation (B-rep)
- Faceted boundary representation
- Manifold surfaces with topology
- Geometrically bounded surfaces and wireframes (2D/3D) with topology
- Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG)
- Geometric validation and tolerancing: properties and checks for assessing conversion quality, tolerances and geometric integrity.
- Parameterized properties and expressions: properties defined via expressions, relationships between variables and parameterized product attributes.
- Building and space elements for decoration projects: components like walls, beams, columns, rooms and gangways and their placement within interior designs.
Applications and Who Uses It
ISO/TS 10303-436:2006 is used where standardized furniture/catalog and interior design data exchange is required:
- Furniture manufacturers and distributors for interoperable product catalogs and configurators.
- Interior designers and space planners who need accurate product placement, building element modeling and room definitions.
- CAD/CAM and PLM software vendors implementing AP236/STEP-compliant import/export and data validation.
- E‑commerce platforms integrating parametric catalogs, price lists and multi-language product information.
- Data exchange specialists ensuring reliable geometry conversion, tolerance checks and production-ready specifications.
Related Standards
- ISO 10303 (STEP) core standards and AP236 (ISO 10303-236) - the broader application protocol for furniture catalog and interior design.
- Other STEP application modules in the ISO 10303 series that can be combined with Part 436 for extended product data interoperability.
