Wall components schedule - does it take into account the wall closure type?

Ernest Atanasiu — Mon, 25 Jun 2018 15:07:25 GMT

hello again,

I am scheduling an exterior wall with a custom closure, where the outside skin represents stone cladding.
The components schedule does not calculate the cladding that turns-in.
The painful and cumbersome workaround would be to schedule this separately in a window schedule where I have to list the height, width and reveal depth and then do the math (maybe AC22 will do the math, I'm still on 21).

Anyone found a simpler solution ?

If you generate a section through the Window you will see that the Wall Closure is not generated in 3D, only in 2D. Therefore it is not calculated either. I think you will have to do those calculations (easy to do in ARCHICAD 22, if you have it).
In AC21 you would have to do the calculation within the Window objects, which involves GDL scripting.

“easy to do in ARCHICAD 22, if you have it).” Can you tell a little bit more specific? Thank.

This is what the OP wrote:

I guess this would work because the Window has these values available as parameters which could be scheduled that way.
