Areas

There are three different areas listed under summary, namely Net Area, Gross Area and Bounding Box Area. The difference between these will be explained first with a definition and also with examples for different element types.

Definitions

Net Area = Surface touching form, Area reduced with all holes, openings and edge shapes.
Gross Area = Built area, Outer contour
Bounding Box Area = Length * Height or Width

Example

Changing the geometry of the Double Wall changes the areas in the summery
