	Functions are always part of at least one Category, but can also be part of multiple categories. An example is a Function for a Building with shops at a bottom floor, but residences on floors above it. Or flats which contain a mix of both social and luxury housing. In these cases, the Function's Categories each have a respective weight. While the Building remains a single Function, it is treated as 'divided' among its Categories for performed queries (e.g., for floor size).{{clear}}		Functions are always part of at least one Category, but can also be part of multiple categories.
