Key features include:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

1. Automatic Wall Elevation Generation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Converts closed rectangular polylines<\/strong> from a floor plan into elevation views<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Generates sequentially numbered walls<\/strong>, ensuring structured visualization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2. Layer-Based Organization<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Assigns walls to specific layers<\/strong> based on the floor number<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Helps in better organization and visualization<\/strong> of multi-floor layouts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      3. Customizable Wall Properties<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Set wall thickness and height<\/strong> as per project requirements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Define starting wall numbers and prefixes<\/strong> for better identification.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        4. Intelligent Space Planning Integration<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Works with space planning and estimation tools<\/strong> for accurate design workflows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Allows easy modifications and updates to wall structures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          5. Optimized for Construction Documentation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Ideal for generating detailed elevation drawings<\/strong> directly from floor plans.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Saves time by eliminating manual wall elevation drafting<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
