Zone Areas

Hi friends

For computing loads from zone areas… How can we get this computation from each zone area as labeled by “labelZone” component?

Tx

The somehow simple solution is to use decompose based on type and then calculate the area for each floor/zone. This will be good enough as long as you don’t have a single zone with multiple floors.

If you are looking to generate it similar to the component a code like this should print the areas for you assuming Honeybee zones are connected to an input named HBZones.

import scriptcontext as sc

hb_hive = sc.sticky"honeybee_Hive"

call the objects from the hive

zones = hb_hive.callFromHoneybeeHive(HBZones)

for zone in zones:
print zone.getFloorArea()

!!!

wow

ok…

thats not my languaje! lovely id like keep developing ldhb because its an awesome cocktail of tools, howerver it will be in diferent way at least for now. Right now im glad to increase this kind of documentation hoping can be useful for lbhb users.

hey M

I think the component can be useful for area tracking and input for math operations… like Mackey load videos…
