Remarks
Some unit types represent fundamental physical quantities to be measured, for example UT_Length, UT_Area, UT_Mass, or UT_Force.
Other unit types exist to provide an alternate set of unit settings for a physical quantity. For example, UT_HVAC_DuctSize is used for measuring sizes of ducts, UT_PipeSize is used for measuring sizes of pipes, and UT_SheetLength is used for measuring distances on a piece of paper. All of those are lengths and could use UT_Length, but they are typically measured using different units or to a different degree of accuracy compared with typical lengths in a building. By using different unit types, the Units class can have different default settings for measuring values of the same physical quantity.
