COLUMN FIELD NAME

DESCRIPTION

 

Area of the Column

Area of the Column’s cross section on the Floor Plan, including the area of the veneer, if any.

Core Dimension 2

For a rectangular or profiled Column: One of the two dimensions of the Column in cross-section. (The other dimension is “Core Dimension 1.”)

For a circular Column: the diameter of the Column in cross-section.

Core Dimension 1

For a rectangular or profiled Column: One of the dimensions of the Column in cross-section. (The other dimension is “Core Dimension 2”.)
Not applicable to circular Columns.

Column Cross Section

Shape of the Column’s cross-section (rectangular, circular or profiled) as defined in the Settings dialog box.

Column_CrossSection.png 

Building Material/Profile

Name of the Building Material assigned to the Column core (or the name of the Profile, in case of a profiled Column.)

Height

Height of the Column. (If the top of a Column is uneven and thus has two heights, e.g. due to a Roof trim, Height = Maximum Height.

See also “Maximum/Minimum” height parameters.)

Top link story

Name of Column’s top-linked Story, if any.

 

Top offset

Offset (if any) of Column from its top-linked Story.

Maximum height of the Column

For a straight or slanted Column: equivalent to Height.
For a Column cut e.g. by a slanted Roof: the highest point of the Column. 

Column_MaximumHeight.png 

Minimum height of the Column

For a straight or slanted Column: equivalent to Height.
For a Column cut e.g. by a slanted Roof: the lowest point of the Column.

Surface

Surface assigned to Column (in Settings dialog box).

Perimeter of the Column

Perimeter of the Column’s cross section.

Slant Angle

Slant angle of a slanted Column.

Net surface area of the core (without top/bottom)

Net Surface area of the Column core on all sides, not including the surface of the Column top or bottom. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Gross surface area of the core (without top/bottom)

Gross surface area of the Column core on all sides, not including the surface of the Column top or bottom. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossCoreSurface.png 

Gross surface area of the core top (or bottom)

Surface area of the cross-section of the core at the top (or bottom) of the Column. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossCoreTopSurface.png 

Gross surface area of the veneer (without top/bottom)

Gross surface area of the Column veneer on all sides, not including the surface of the veneer at the top or bottom of the Column. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossVeneerSurface.png 

Gross surface area of the veneer top (or bottom)

Surface area of the cross section of the veneer at the top (or bottom) of the Column. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossVeneerTopSurface.png 

Net surface area of the core bottom

Surface area of the cross-section of the core at the bottom of the Column.Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetCoreBottomSurface.png 

Net surface area of the core top

Surface area of the cross-section of the veneer at the top of the Column. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetCoreTopSurface.png 

Net surface area of the veneer bottom

Surface area of the cross-section of the veneer at the bottom of the Column. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetVeneerBottomSurface.png 

Net surface area of the veneer top

Surface area of the cross-section of the veneer at the top of the Column.Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetVeneerTopSurface.png 

Net Surface Area of the Veneer

Net Surface area of the Column veneer on all sides, not including the surface of the veneer at the top or bottom of the Column. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetVeneerSurface.png 

Veneer Building Material

Name of Building Material assigned to veneer (in Column Settings dialog box).

Column_VeneerFill.png 

Veneer Type

Definition of veneer as either Core, Finish or None, as defined in the Settings dialog box (Geometry and Positioning Panel). Veneer Type will affect the display of the Column, which is determined by the Partial Structure Display Settings.

Column_VeneerType.png 

Net volume of the core

Net volume of the Column core. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetCoreVolume.png 

Gross volume of the Column

Gross volume of the Column, including the volume of both the core and veneer, if any. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossVolume.png 

Gross volume of the core

Gross volume of the Column core. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossCoreVolume.png 

Gross volume of the veneer

Gross volume of the Column veneer. Does not take any Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_GrossVeneerVolume.png 

Net volume of the veneer

Net volume of the Column veneer on all sides. Takes Solid Element Operations into account.

Column_NetVeneerVolume.png 

Volume of the Column

Net volume of the Column (including the volume of the core and of the veneer, if any). Takes Solid Element Operations into account.
