How to find the space name with an element's X,Y and Z coordinates?

[nithesh.ramanan]

I used the ElementsinSpace-node to retrieve the space an element is present in. I assign this space name to the element in a user created parameter. This does not work when I have a pipe which extends from Room A to B but the length is such that it stops half way in both spaces. Since it crosses two spaces, this node keeps the parameter empty.

To overcome this, I have acquired the element’s curve and divided into a number of points. Now, I want to get the space name in which the X,Y and Z coordinates intersect. Is there any node or any other method to bring this?

Thanks in advance.!

Hi @nithesh.ramanan
Thanks for asking, This query is similar to the query already been asked in Dynamo Form.

Please refer to these following post:

Finding Space pipe accessory resides in

Hello, I am trying to report the space a pipe accessory resides in within my model, however I am struggling to achieve this. Pipe accessories do not have a room calculation point and they are not space aware? Also they are invariably in a ceiling void which is not included within a mechanical space? Is there a work around within Dynamo? Any ideas/help would be gratefully received

Obtain Space for Pipes

Wondering if Element.space not working for pipe/ pipe fitting elements? Is there an obvious reason or I am missing something? I want the pipes to report the room they are in. I understand they are not like loadable families to have a room calculation point - but how do i get their space. I have tried the tool get surrounding elements but my definition is taking forever and look to make it leaner. Regards, John

Hope this helps.
