Window Schedule - glazing area


Recommended Posts

Interesting. I tried it and using a simple window with a single pane, I got exactly the same area by drawing a rectangle over the glazing as was reported by NGA2.

 

No good reference that I know of to what the fields actually mean. Kind of just trial and error. I think there have been several previous threads about glazing area. Perhaps search and see if you can find something.

 

Good luck.

The proper field for both Doors and Windows is NGA2. This is defined as an Area parameter and should you the value in the defined area unit for your document. 

Keep in mind that value calculated for Net Glazed Area is the area of the glass/glazing. This does not include the sash and jamb that surround the glass. If you have several panes of glass NGA2 accumulates all pieces of glass.

The NGA (for door) and NetGlazedArea (for window) field are outdated. They were from before Area type parameters were available.
