Floors

Step 0 is the start. You set how many full floors your building has and how tall each one becomes.

Number of floors

In the main panel, under "Number of floors", you set the number of floors with the and + buttons.

Value
Minimum 1 floor
Maximum 10 floors

The first floor is called Ground floor, each one above it Floor 1, Floor 2 and so on.

Ceiling height per floor

Every floor gets its own height. You'll find the sliders on the right in the parameter panel under "Ceiling height per floor" — one slider per floor.

Setting Range
Ceiling height ground floor 0,3 m to 15,0 m
Ceiling height upper floors 0,3 m to 8,0 m
Step size 0,1 m

Above each slider are two values: on the left the ceiling height you set, on the right the resulting floor-to-floor height. The floor-to-floor height is 0,30 m more than the ceiling height.

Ceiling height and floor-to-floor height

The 0,30 m difference is the thickness of the floor slab. Example: set 3,00 m ceiling height and the app shows = 3,30 m floor-to-floor height.

Roof and eaves

A note in the parameter panel reminds you: The roof sits directly on the top floor. There is no separate ceiling on top.

Top floor = roof pivot point

With more than one floor, the height of the top floor also sets the roof pivot point, i.e. the eaves. What eaves and ridge mean is explained in the Glossary.

Once the floors are set, continue with the Floor plan.
