Stamp for automatic calculation all rooms area in apartment on the plan

Hi Community !

Is there a collective stamp for the Archicad INT version for automatic calculation of the area of all rooms in the apartment on the plan, something like TOP Stempel for the Austrian AC version?

Usually I use Generaly Label and calculate Surface Area net, with wall deduction, but this is a problem if I have a coefficient for calculating balcony or terrace area (e.g. 25% or 50%).

How do you deal with it?

Thank you in advance.

Andrii.

Our approach for similar problem: draw zones without stamp and add them up in a schedule that we place on the layout along with the floor plan.

Ussually the required area calculation layouts are separate from the main floor plans and colour coded. By adding the same colour behind the cells of the schedule on the layout, it generally makes things quite understandable.

We use a python script that put the calculation of the area of all rooms in the apartment in a property in each room. Then, we use a label to retrieve that value on plan, linked to any room of the apartment.

Hi @Erwin Edel

It's good approach, I use schedules on layouts with standard requirements as well, but unfortunately in this case I need Stamp.

Thanks for sharing your approach.

Hi @Mathias Jonathan

The result is understandable but it is not entirely clear how it works and how it looks on plan.

2 Zones, same zone number. The total value property is empty.

Launching the python script. The total value property displays the calculation.

We link a label to the zone (normal Label) displaying the property Total value

Each time we want an update, we launch the script. We can display the total value in a specific Zone with the zone stamp or with a Label.

HI Mathias, could you provide the script for others?

Kind regards
