"""Adds a new parameterised profile
IFC offers parameterised profiles for common standardised hot roll
steel sections and common concrete forms. A full list is available on
the IFC documentation as subclasses of IfcParameterizedProfileDef.
Currently, this API has no benefit over directly calling
ifcopenshell.file.create_entity.
:param ifc_class: The subclass of IfcParameterizedProfileDef that you'd
like to create.
:param profile_type:
:return: The newly created element depending on the specified ifc_class.
Example:
.. code:: python
circle = ifcopenshell.api.profile.add_parameterized_profile(model,
ifc_class="IfcCircleProfileDef")
circle.Radius = 1.
