The
Areabook Extension calculates living and net areas by rooms and room groups and also calculates net, gross, and construction floor areas by project to create a comprehensive floor area calculation.
An overview of the
Areabook Extension
- Combine room groups and evaluate by levels, departments, flats, building, and building sections.
- Rooms have a predefined area assignment based on names.
- Optionally, you may select to calculate subareas under roofs and stairs based on height lines and calculation factors.
- Subareas are now automatically detected and calculated, similar to the way columns, wall segments, wall niches, and windows niches affect the floor area.
- You can apply reductions for finishing surfaces to the room, subareas, or to single sides.
- You can display the dissection areas in the project and export forms for mathematical evidence.
- Several export formats are available: MS Excel. Design Web Format, CSV and
Revit Schedules.
Areabook includes different national standards for calculating areas
Areabook uses the following standards in association with other defined
calculation rules:
International Standard
- Existing
Revit Architecture rooms are used for specific information.
- Room assignments are automatically predefined from the area definition in a
RevitRFA file.
- Combine room groups and evaluate by levels, departments, flats, building, and building sections.
- Calculated floor areas by net, gross and construction floor area.
- Evaluate areas by living area, net floor area, and unfinished area with automatic dissection and mathematical evidence.
- Consider one or two height lines for the calculation of room areas under roofs and stairs.
- For clear area evaluations,
Areabook offers predefined Microsoft Excel templates that you can customize.
- Export to Design Web Format (DWF) to edit the data further with Autodesk Quantity Takeoff.
- You can export
Areabook data to a CSV file.
- You can export data to
Revit schedules.
DIN Standard (Germany):
- Area calculation according to
DIN 277 and WoflV or II.BV.
- Existing
Revit Architecture rooms extend for DIN 277 specific information.
- Room assignments are automatically predefined according to DIN 277 from the area definition in a
Revit RFA file.
- Combine room groups and evaluate by levels, departments, flats, building, and building sections.
- Calculated floor areas by net, gross and construction floor area.
- Evaluate areas by DIN 277 and WoflV/II.BV with automatic dissection and mathematical evidence.
- Consider height lines for the calculation of room areas under roofs and stairs according to DIN 277 or WoflV resp. II.BV.
- Subareas are ignored for calculation by value, such as elements by area or height, stairs by number of steps, and niches by depth.
- For clear area evaluations,
Areabook offers predefined Microsoft Excel templates that you can customize.
- For living area calculations by Wohnflächenverordnung (WofIV), Zweiter Berechnungsverordnung (II.BV) offers a standard form accepted by most German building authorities.
- Export to Design Web Format (DWF) to edit the data further with Autodesk Quantity Takeoff.
- You can export
Areabook data to a CSV file.
- You can export data to
Revit schedules.
