FAMILY OF CONCEPTS - Structural Partition of Ontological Block
| Categorized Class | 
Ontological Block Ontological Block is the root ontological foundation that defines the capacity to embody meaning through Semantic Relationships - such as Composition (Whole/Part), Classification or Specialization. In contrast, Building Blocks like Aggregate Blocks or Containers act as syntactic constructs, They structure or group Ontological Blocks, but lack inherent semantic properties of their own, serving purely as structural or logistical tools within the framework. |

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
Individual |
Individuals are Ontological Blocks which represent things that exist over space and time. Individuals are represented as light orange boxes, while there classes are represented as dark orange boxes (see the Meta-Model Legend) . Examples: . The Eiffel tower completion (31st March 1889) .

Ordered Semantic Class |
An Ordered Semantic Class is collection of Ontological Blocks which it classifies according to a chain of powertype relations, with every Ordered Semantic Class specializing the basic type of the same order and instantiating the one of the order above. This make SysFEAT is a higher-order ontology, so Ordered Semantic Classes may have members that are also Ordered Semantic Classes ( Class of Classes). |
