Interior walls are detected as exterior walls

Problem

During building detection, some interior walls are detected as exterior walls.

Possible cause: rooms/shafts are too small

Particularly in the case of shafts, it can happen that the adjacent interior walls are recognized as exterior walls during detection. Very small rooms can also be affected by this, as they are also detected as shafts due to their size. As a result, the walls of the adjacent MEP spaces are detected as exterior walls.

Solution

You can change the respective walls to interior walls in LINEAR Building using the Search & Replace function.

Procedure

  1. In LINEAR Building, select the room in the building structure.
  2. Open the Search & Replace function via the button .
  3. In the column Filter of the dialog, set the filter for the desired parameter, Z component type or U-value. You can set additional filters in the lines below to narrow down the search.
  4. In the Value column, specify the value for the search. As soon as you set a value, all components with these values will be listed at the bottom of the dialog.
  5. Check the displayed components and confirm with Replace values.
