In this paper, canonical decompositions of arbitrary piecewise affine mappings are constructed. Then the equivalence of these mappings is introduced and the concept of polyhedron-trace is defined as an equivalence class. Finally, the concepts of the volume and the deformation of polyhedra-traces are introduced, the continuity of the volume is proved, and the formula of first variation is obtained. These concepts give an analog of the Plateau principles.
