Graphic representation of a area symbol. A vertical line with a thickness of 0.6 mm, segmented at nodes every 4.00 mm (resulting in 5.66 mm segment length), starting at a 45° angle and bending by 90° at each node. As a result, the overall line runs vertically, although none of its segments are vertical.
