About Creating Room/Area Reports

You can create a detailed report that describes areas defined in plan views (floor plans and area plans).

For a floor plan, Revit generates a room report. For an area plan, Revit generates an area report. These reports contain information about all rooms or areas with floors on the corresponding level. Each report is generated as an HTML file.

When creating a room/area report, you can choose from the following formats:

• Revit room area triangulation report. For each room or area in the selected plan, the report contains images of room boundaries or area boundaries, which are triangulated and annotated. Following each image, a table shows calculations for the triangulated areas, as well as total room area and total window area.
• Revit room area numerical integration report. For each room or area in the selected plan, the report contains a table that lists segments, sub-areas, and their dimensions. Each table is followed by the total room area and total window area.

You can create triangulation reports that exclude areas bounded by multiple curve loops (such as a room with columns or closets in the middle). When a room/area report excludes these areas, triangulation is performed, reported, and displayed separately for each bounding loop. (This option only applies to Revit room area triangulation reports; it is ignored for Revit room area numerical integration reports.)

This functionality is primarily intended for European users.

Note: This feature is primarily intended for architects and systems engineers.
