Floor area
The construction area, also known as the building development area, is a professional term in the construction industry, which is directly related to the calculation of the usable area and the utility rate. It refers to the sum of the floor area of each floor measured above the outer horizontal plane of the exterior wall of a residential building, usually excluding outdoor open-air spaces (such as courtyards, balconies, corridors, garages, etc.), but only the usable area inside the building. It is an economic indicator that indicates the size of the building building, and it is also a physical quantity index that reflects the scale of building construction in square meters.
Software Layout: Draw a face bounded by the outer edge of the outermost circle of the wall.
Definition: Floor area calculation method (calculate all, calculate half, do not calculate).
2-1 Conversion factor.
Procedure
On the tab, select [Dawn BIM Modeling], and click [Sporadic Components] - [Building Area] to pop up the function interface;
Create a new type, select the corresponding conversion factor, area increase or decrease;
Choose between manual layout or floor layout.
2-2 Layout of the floor area (front).
2-3 Layout of the building area (back).
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate the floor area of the balcony by half?
Re: For the new construction area, half of the description column is indicated (the steps in the description column can be omitted), and the conversion factor is 05. Manual arrangement. (The floor layout is for the layout of a single floor, multiple floors, and the whole floor).
2-4 Calculate one-half of the floor area.
Area increase or decrease] What is the actual solution of the function?
Re: If the two rooms of a certain section of the wall are shared, you can calculate the area of the half wall, you can follow the center line of the wall or use the inner edge line when manually drawing the floor area, and you need to use the [Area Increase or Decrease] function. This function is set to increase the wall thickness by half in advance, and this value will be added to the engineering quantity.

Scaffolding
Scaffolding refers to the various supports erected on the construction site for workers to operate and solve vertical and horizontal transportation. A general term used in the construction industry to refer to the construction site used in the exterior wall, interior decoration or high floor height where direct construction is not possible. Mainly for the construction personnel to work up and down or safety net maintenance and high-altitude installation components, etc., to put it bluntly, it is to build a shelf, so how much does a shelf need to be built, and what is the area? Next, we will mainly explain the operation of scaffolding software and area calculation.
Procedure
Arrange exterior wall scaffolding in the outermost circle of walls.
On the tab, select [Dawn BIM Modeling], and click [Sporadic Components] - [Arrange Scaffolding] to pop up the function interface;
Create a new type, and select whether to edit the profile, top height, or low height;
Choose between manual layout or floor layout.
2-6 Arrange the scaffolding (front).
2-7 Arrange the scaffolding (rear).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the arrangement of full scaffolding also the same as above?
Re: Full scaffolding can be done without arranging entities, by assigning value output. The scaffolding here is suitable for the calculation of façade scaffolding, and in special cases it can be applied to masonry scaffolding. (Masonry scaffolding also supports the assignment method).
2-8 Calculation rules (full scaffolding).
Will there be prompts for scaffolding software that is re-arranged? Will it affect the engineering quantity?
Re: The re-arrangement software will prompt that new scaffolding will no longer be generated.
