Project Tab ➤ Radiant Heating and Cooling Discipline ➤ Construction Tab

Construction areas section without area plan

Construction areas for radiant heating circuits and radiant cooling circuits are generated in area plans. If the current view is not an area plan, the Go to area plan button is displayed in the Construction areas section.

Go to area plan

If an area plan already exists for the current storey, it will be used as the current view when clicking this button.

If no area plan exists yet, an area plan for the current storey and the radiant heating and cooling discipline will be created in the following dialog when this button is clicked.

Construction areas with area plan section

If the current view is an area plan, the Construction areas section displays the functions for creating construction areas.

Boundaries

Constructs area boundaries where construction areas for radiant heating circuits or radiant cooling circuits can be created. This function can also be used to add existing construction areas to islands that are to be kept free from pipe laying or to create border zones that are to be given a pipe laying with deviating grids.

Area <

Creates construction areas within area boundaries created with the Boundaries function.

Area in room <

Creates construction areas in rooms and spaces.

Create partial areas <

Divides construction areas into partial areas with equal area portions in order to influence the number and position of radiant heating circuits or radiant cooling circuits. With the start side you select, from which side the division is made.
