Wall inside height

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

starting my time in the forum with a question...

Does anybody know if/how I can get the "inside wall height" in a Schedule.
Using AC18. The walls are "properly" modelled, that is from base level slab upper side to upper level slab upper side, but I need the actual construction height that is the height comprehended between upper side of lower slab and underside of upper slab (also substracting coatings). The slab outer shells are not modelled (are built through the wall element) but should be quantified apart.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

If your walls are not intersected with slanted roofs, you could use the "Minimum Height of the Wall Skin on the Inside Face" field in the Scheme Settings of the Schedule. This should pick exactly what you need if the model is correct. I don't remember if this field is available in AC18, though.

Otherwise, in AC 22 take a look at Property Manager and the new Expressions. Again, the uniformity of wall heights and slabs will impact the accuracy of calculations.
