All facets have an orientation convention from which an inside and outside may be determined. By default, a facet is single-sided, meaning that only the outside surface will be visible when rendered. If a facet is double-sided both inside and outside surfaces will be rendered. Sidedness refers to whether a facet is double-sided, and is inherited from the ACIS entity to which the facets are attached; e.g., a body.
