FBernardo Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Hi all, I know all or most of all architects go and use the Window schedule worksheet to dimension and size the windows. But when you designing the window, if you are going to have a 1200mm height by 1400mm wide, are those 1200mm height accounting with the Sill or not ? Why i'm asking this is every time i want to think of a window size i usually go to the structural dimension of the window and not the window size itself and the Sill has to be accounted for but when designing it if i go for 1200mm height i usually get to remove 75mm or 50mm depending of the size of the Sill. Relative to the doors the Threshold is incorporated with the door height so a 2100mm height door if i add a threshold it goes within this dimension and doesn't increase the height to 2150mm or something, Wouldn't it be better for the window to have that possibility too or am i thinking wrongly??

ColinW Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 It excludes the sill which isn’t always what you might wish for. The worksheet can be modified so the reported height is a sum of the window frame height plus the sill height. Quote Link to comment
