Purpose of defining the type and function of a wall layer

Could I understand the purpose of defining the type and function of a wall layer. How does it affect how the wall is defined?

Hi @Julius3 this information has no relevance or effect on how walls are modeled or the information they store right now. You can ignore it.
In future versions we may use these function for the IFC information of the wall, or for determining wall joints or wrappings.
