a clump of facets regarding that facets do not have volume.

something like sum(m_i * r_i^2), depending on your needs (blocked rotation along x and z or not, ...), see [2].
zero volume is not important, partial masses m_i and center of masses r_i matter. Should not be difficult for triangular facets.
