walls of length x that will produce room of length y? I want to do what the user guide instructed and make walls before clicking to create rooms. But if I make 4 walls of 20' each, the resulting room is not 20x20 but smaller. (How much smaller depends on the thickness of the wall.) Is there a formula I can use to create walls that will give a room that's 20x20? thanks |

Re: walls of length x that will produce room of length y? (start wall thickness ./. 2) + wall length + (end wall thickness ./. 2) ./. = divided by H ---------------------------------------- Hans new website - under constuction hansdirkse.info |

Re: walls of length x that will produce room of length y? Or the short way (Hans explained it absolutely correct) desired wall length plus wall thickness. For a 20x20 room your walls need to be 20 + (wall thickness) long. Why? Because the mesurepoint is always at the center of the wall (thickness). Choosing an even value for the wall thickness makes the math easier... ---------------------------------------- Pascal SH3D 6.6 / Ubuntu 22.04 (Mainline-Kernel) / Radeon RX580 / Ryzen 7 5800x |
