Hello Dynamo Forum!
I tried my bes to make the title of this post as clear as possible, but I fear it’s quite confusing - apologies!
What we’re trying to achieve is the following;
Here in Germany we need to calculate what’s called “Living Area” (Wohnfläche).
To do this is quite simple. All one has to do is,
Add all of the Areas - in our Revit Model “Room Areas” - together, except for the Areas of Balconies, which first need to get divided by 2, so that 50% of this area is added to the total Living Area.
As such the basic algorithm would look something like this;
If RoomName does not equal Balcony then Living Area = RoomArea
If RoomName equals Balcony then Living Area = RoomArea / 2
In our Revit Model we can then add the total LivingArea together.
I’m sure this could be done in two separate scripts. I.e. one which Booleans the Balcony Areas, with a function of “Divide by 2” and one which Booleans the non-balcony areas out, and “pushes” their areas to this new field, but I’d love to do this in one click!
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.
