Create Floors
Creates a floor, screed, negative extrusion, compound floor or compound screed.
Floor elements are not part of the catalogue and are therefore a 2D user defined shape extruded through a thickness. These elements are intended to represent any sheet material but in general are used to represent concrete slabs.
The planar area of the floor is defined by a Panel Loop (PLOO) element. A Panel Loop is itself defined by linking together a set of panel vertex (PAVE) elements, each of which has a specific position in the 2D co-ordinate system of the panel. Each panel edge is defined by a line joining adjacent vertices.
The floor thickness is defined by setting the height attribute of the PLOO element which represents the distance through which the 2D panel loop is extruded to form the floor panel.
The following types of floor can be added to a 3D model:
•

Create Screed
•
