To Classify a Space According to an Area Calculation Standard

If you have generated a space that has its boundaries calculated by an area calculation standard, you may need to classify the space according to the selected standard, in order to provide the standard with the necessary information to calculate the boundaries. For example, the BOMA standard requires classifying spaces according to their space type, as the space type is relevant for determining boundary offsets.

  1. Select a space that has its boundary calculation defined by an area calculation standard.
  2. On the Properties palette, click the Extended Data tab.
  3. For Classification, the classification definition belonging to the area calculation standard defined for this drawing is displayed.

    For example, if you have selected the BOMA area calculation standard for your drawing, the BOMA classification definition is displayed.

  4. Click the setting for the required classification type, and select a classification in the Select Classification worksheet.
  5. Click OK.
