Short Description
Long Description
Curtain Wall Pattern Angle
Rotation angle of the row Grid Lines measured clockwise from the column Grid Lines. This angle is defined in the Curtain Wall Scheme Settings/Grid Pattern panel, under Rows.
Curtain Wall Surface Area Including Boundary
Surface area of Curtain Wall, including the surface area of its Boundary Frames.
If the Boundary Frames are placed “Inside Grid” (Curtain Wall Settings/Curtain Wall System/ Member Placement: Place Boundary Frames “Inside”), then this parameter is equal to the general Surface Area parameter for the Curtain Wall.
If the Boundary Frames are placed “Outside Grid” or “Centered on Grid”, then the value of this parameter will exceed the general Surface Area parameter, because the Boundary Frames hang out over the boundary line.
If you use an Invisible type Frame for your Boundary Frames (Curtain Wall Settings/Curtain Wall System/Frames: Boundary), then the value of this parameter will be less than that of the general Surface Area parameter.
Number of Panels in Curtain Wall
Number of panels in the Curtain Wall.
Total Length of Contour Frames
Total Length of Custom Frames
Total Length of Frames
Total of the lengths of all frames in the Curtain Wall. If the shape of the Frame is not uniform, then the value of the Frame length is calculated by taking the average of its shortest and longest lengths.
Total Length of Frames Belonging to the Main Axis
Total Length of Frames Belonging to the Secondary Axis
Curtain Wall Total Panel Surface Area
Total surface area of all the Curtain Wall panels. This value does not include the surface of the frames between the panels. Total Panel Surface Area is seen if you look at the Curtain Wall in Edit mode, with just the Panels visible.
