Stabicad
In Stabicad, the information on floor/space polylines is stored in the extended entity data (XData) of the related polyline.
The following list includes typical characteristics of Stabicad drawings:
• It is only possible to store the code and name of a space or a floor in the drawing.
 | If Stabicad is selected as a source of the field mapping on any other field, no data will be imported. |
• Both net and floor polylines are generally present on the same layer.
• The concept of net and gross polylines is not supported. During import, all the polylines are interpreted as net polylines.
• In Stabicad drawings, enclosed polylines are identified by the type of the line as defined in the XData. This means that for Stabicad drawings the enclosed polyline interpretation as defined in the business object mapping is overruled by the type of the polyline as defined in Stabicad.
There are four types of enclosed polylines present in Stabicad. The type of polyline used to create a drawing interprets the surrounding area of the space or floor polyline. The impact on the surrounding area is described as follows:
Type of polyline | Impact on the surrounding area |
|---|---|
Hole | Enclosed area >= 4m²: subtracts from the gross internal area of the surrounding floor polyline. Enclosed area >= 4m²: subtracts from the net area of the surrounding space polyline. |
Construction | No impact on the gross internal area of surrounding floor polyline. Enclosed area>= 0.5m²: subtracts from the net area of surrounding space polyline. |
Construction polyline less than 1.5 meter | No impact on the gross internal area of surrounding floor polyline. Always subtracts from the net area of the surrounding space polyline. |
Enclosed space | No impact on the gross internal area of the surrounding floor polyline. Always subtracts from the net area of surrounding space polyline. |
While creating the .orj files, the enclosed polylines that are interpreted as holes appear in the FM .orj drawing, whereas the enclosed polylines, which do not affect the surrounding floor/space polyline area are treated as construction data and appear in the constructional .orj drawing.
 | You can import Stabicad 8 drawings with enclosed room entities. The enclosed room entities represent holes in a floor or a space. The holes are identified for a floor or a space if they are present on the layer specified and inside the floor or the space. The area for a hole is calculated as: Area of polyline Floor/Space - Enclosed Area. |
