Element Description
MaterialId The materialIdRef attribute in this element contains a reference to the materials that makes up the layer. The constructions in Revit normally consist of a single layer; this is customary in DOE2, also done in order to get around a limitation in DOE2 (related to very light or heavy materials).

<Layer id="lay-w11">

<MaterialId materialIdRef="mat-244" />

<MaterialId materialIdRef="mat-384" />

<MaterialId materialIdRef="mat-452" />

<MaterialId materialIdRef="mat-353" />
