During the past week and included this one we, as we said, had to help on other projects the office had to deliver at the end of May but we managed to fix some issues with the script :
- From all the element gather at desire level we have removed all the objects that are
- not in primary design options
- not within the scope :
- Lines – <Area Boundary>
- Lines – <Room Separation>
- Model Groups
- Entourage
- Furniture Systems
- Furniture
- Electrical Equipment
- Plumbing Fixtures
- Casework
- Generic Models
- Specialty Equipment
- Ceilings
- Lighting Fixtures
- We first consider deleting these elements directly in the model but it would make us process the Revit file and we would like to avoid as much manipulation of the original file as possible. For now we only do two things :
- Switch the units to meters
- “Clean” the area boundaries and room separation
- We started to go through the file to delete as many geometry computation as possible
- We added the category “Windows” for the one that are in common spaces (stairscase, corridors, hall)
- Optional walls have been added back to the scope (too many out of the box method to keep track of)
- We fix an issue where some doors (i.e. electric fuse box) are counted in “Door exterior/interior apartment”
- We fix an issue with the ceiling height of the floor. The returned value was the total height of all the floor studied instead of the average height of all the studied floor.
- We fix multiple issues with the list management of windows. An error occurred when there are multiple occurrences of only one type.
- We fix general list management issues due to other changes
As we were working with these different fix we also realised that the Revit category “Curtain Wall” was not processed correctly and we will start working on that topic next week.
