Create Dragonfly Buildings from solid geometry (closed Rhino polysurfaces).
bldg_geo [Required]
A list of closed Rhino polysurfaces to be converted into Buildings.
floor_to_floor [Required]
An array of floor-to-floor height instructions that describe how a building mass should be divided into floors. The array should run from bottom floor to top floor. Each item in the array can be either a single number for the floor-to-floor height or a text string that codes for how many floors of each height should be generated. For example, inputting "2@4" will make two floors with a height of 4 units. Simply inputting "@3" will make all floors at 3 units. Putting in sequential arrays of these text strings will divide up floors accordingly. For example, the list ["1@5", "2@4", "@3"] will make a ground floor of 5 units, two floors above that at 4 units and all remaining floors at 3 units.
perim_offset
An optional positive number that will be used to offset the perimeter of the footprint to create core/perimeter Rooms. If this value is None or 0, no offset will occur and each floor plate will be represented with a single Room2D.
name
Text to set the base name for the Building, which will also be incorporated into unique Building identifier. This will be combined with the index of each input _bldg_geo to yield a unique name for each output Building. If the name is not provided, a random one will be assigned.
program
Text for the program of the Buildings (to be looked up in the ProgramType library) such as that output from the "HB List Programs" component. This can also be a custom ProgramType object. If no program is input here, the Buildings will have a generic office program.
constr_set
Text for the construction set of the Buildings, which is used to assign all default energy constructions needed to create an energy model. Text should refer to a ConstructionSet within the library such as that output from the "HB List Construction Sets" component. This can also be a custom ConstructionSet object. If nothing is input here, the Buildings will have a generic construction set that is not sensitive to the Buildings's climate or building energy code.
conditioned
Boolean to note whether the Buildings have heating and cooling systems.
run [Required]
Set to True to run the component and create Dragonfly Buildings.
report
Reports, errors, warnings, etc.
buildings
Dragonfly buildings.
