| Example | A pumping, an inspection, a report writing, a fastening (the activity of a bolt in holding two pieces together). |
| scope note | An 'activity' doesn't need to be temporally connected. For example, intermittent operation of a heater over a week can be represented by a single 'activity' individual; it will occupy a non-connected 'interval region'. The details of each connected activity part ("singular activities") may be modelled by relating the activity to 'interval' individuals. |
