ACIS provides regularized and nonregularized Boolean operations.

Regularized Boolean operations are performed on the interior point sets, exclusive of the model boundaries. This type of Boolean operation resolves many modeling tangency issues.

Nonregularized Boolean operations include interactions of model boundaries, and leave all boundary coincidences unresolved. This also keeps boundary faces that are internal to a union in the model.
