Wall Calculations from Archicad

[Anonymous]

Dear Archicad user

i am working with wall calculations i want area of wall but i am so confused because when i take report from sql query its shows area calculations Length x Thickness. But actually Length x Hight know.

Please any one can guide me which i have to take for my wall calculation ?

Area in Archicad terminology means the area a Wall occupies in Top View. So the program reports the right value.
What you probably need is Surface A and Surface B or something like that. Those will return the side surface areas of the Wall.

Can't you use the numbers reported by
'Surround. Wall Surface'

For a description see:

However, I noticed some strange behaviour using this.
See my post: 'Surround. Wall Surface wrong?'
