Context

Using a defined construction method helps retrieve information from models. Applying a standard construction method is useful to ensure that a model contains the essential components that are required.

The following characteristics of the model structure are checked:

  • Hierarchical structure and existence of elements in the tree
  • Position of elements on the top-level of the tree
  • Feature names
  • Element types of components

In addition, the following characteristics can be checked:

  • Position of components within a sub-product
  • Layers of elements
