Description
The article describes how building structure can be prepared and how the created structure can be verified. There are several ways the building structure can be prepared for a project. The choice of the method depends on what source data on the structure and storey plans are available and on the scope of the design to be made. If the scope of the design does not include calculation of heat losses according to standards, then rooms can be represented in the plans as polygons with no cooling partitions. Each storey constitutes a separate plan drawing sheet.
Location in program
Storeys management
Import underlay
- Icons of components and functions related to importing underlays (base drawings) are available in the 2D Editor window on the Main tools bar in the Underlay section when the Underlay editing scope is enabled.
2. Import underlay
Building structure
- Icons of components and functions related to the building structure are available in the 2D Editor window on the Main tools bar in the Construction section when the Construction editing scope is enabled.

3. Building structure components
Examples of use
Manual creation of building structure
Storeys
- Create the required storeys and append their data. The movie shows creation of two sets of storeys.
Underlay
Underlay (base drawing) is a two-dimensional (flat) graphical object retrieved from an external raster or vector file. The underlay itself does not provide building structure components, but it enables manual creation thereof adapted to the actual state of the building.

Room - manual creation of rooms
- Create a Room manually using a contour line
or by drawing a diagonal line. When a room is created by drawing a diagonal line disable the ORTO operating mode. After drawing the diagonal line complete the edition by right clicking.
Room - identification within area bordered with drawn partitions
- Place a series of Wall components by entering at the start the thickness of the wall in Data table and moving the cursor along the internal edges of the walls on the underlay. In underlays retrieved from a DWG file make use of the snapping to indicated layer feature. After placing Internal walls insert External walls in similar manner.
- Place the following components: Window, Door, Opening in wall, Recess.
- Place the following components: Slab. Outline of one storey is by default covered by a single slab.
- Place the following components: Roof.
- Wykonać Computation of building structure .
Computation of building structure uruchamiają szereg operacji związanych z dostarczeniem kompletnej struktury budynku:
- docinanie przegród płaszczyzną dachu,
- automatyczne rozpoznawanie pomieszczeń.
Importing a complete building structure
Importing a building structure from a BIM (gbXML) compatible format
For more information, see: Import files
Importing a building structure from an InstalSystem 4 (ISB) project file
If necessary, manually correct or append the missing or incorrect components of the building structure thus obtained using the methods described above.
Verification of the correctness of building structure
Carry out the verification in the 3D view window
