About Space Decomposition

In some countries, such as Germany and Japan, an important part of space evaluation is the visual decomposition of spaces into subdivisions for the proof that must be approved by the cognizant administrative authority.

A space decomposition is a Plan display representation in which the spaces are displayed as triangles or trapezoids, depending on the decomposition method. Additionally, the decomposition shows height lines as well as edge and height dimensions. Architects need space decomposition for calculation proof.

Decomposition is set in the display properties of the space object, the space style, or in the drawing defaults.

With styles, you can control how the decomposition is displayed, the decomposition method used, color settings for decomposition components, and tags.
