Reading the definition of the object "Geotechnical Unit", I understood that "Discrete Discontinuity" should be a specific geotechnical unit wich is a surface. I agreed with that. Do you confirm...

From my point of view, this two objects came from two different approach : - ShearDisplacementStructure : This concept came from a gelogical approach, in order to describe the specific...

@teemulind I agree with you on the "displacement" point. So maybe, it is relevant to rename this object which is par of the "Domain-Geology". But I wanted to say that...

@mbeaufils, thanks for this clarification. To answer your final question on the point 3, as a geotechnical engineer, I would say that is important to keep a geotechnical object distinct...

> Suggestion to replace "a surface or a volume" by "a body", like in GeoSciML to not restrict representations. eg. along a borehole that would be represent as a line,...

Also, as a general comment, I would say that a "Geotechnical Unit" should not necessarily be a specification of a "Geologic Unit". I agree that the mechanics parameters are highly...

@dponti , From my point of view, this object was introduced in the geotechnics domain to represent a specific discontinuity which : 1 - the geometry and the position is...

@mbeaufils , So I would have added at this definition : "Any interuption of the continuity in the rock material with its attendant mechanical, hydraulic and thermal properties. This object...
