We introduce a new class of varifolds in \(\mathbb{R}^k\) endowed with a generalized notion of second fundamental form and boundary, proving several compactness and structure properties. Our work extends the definitions and some results of J. E. Hutchinson and can be applied to the study of variational problems involving manifolds with boundary.
