[Equest-users] area of (internal) partitions

[John Aulbach]

Filique:

Can you rephrase your question, please?  I don't understand how doubling the 
size of your internal partitions decreases your floor area. The eQuest floor 
areas are (to my undestandinding), from the outside of outside walls to the 
"outside" of any internal partitions IN THE SPACE THAT PARTITION RESIDES. You 
can have only one internal wall separating two adjacent spaces.

Others may comment.

Subject: [Equest-users] area of (internal) partitions

Hello all,

I have a question about the area which is calculated by equest.
Does it take into account the width of internal partitions?
In reality, if I would double the size of my internal walls, my actual floor 
area decreases.
But I could not find differences in the floor area calculated by Equest if I 
change the thickness of my walls.

A similar question accounts for the external partitions. For drawing the ground 
plan, should I therefore take the internal boundary, external boundary or middle 
line?

Kind regards,
Filique
