AUTHENTICATION
First step when running the add-on is to authenticate via Sign in with your archiZone account to enable cloud sync features. After signing in, your email is displayed, and the button changes to Sign Out.
PROJECT INFO
- Project ID Double-click to set the Firebase project ID that links this ArchiCAD file to your archiZone webapp project.
- Project # / Name Displays the project number and name fetched from the cloud. Click the refresh icon to re-fetch.
SYNCHRONIZATION
- Zoning Limits Opens the Zoning Parameters dialog where you set Site Area and allowed ratios (LC%, FAR%, UC%, GSR%). Values can be loaded from or saved to the cloud.
- Sync Compliance Calculates compliance for all tagged zones/slabs and uploads results to archiZone cloud. Requires a valid project ID and sign-in.
- Sync Data Uploads raw zone data (areas, names, story info) to the cloud for use in the webapp.
ANALYSIS
Compliance Runs a full zoning compliance calculation and displays results in the status area. Shows LC (Lot Coverage), FAR (Floor Area Ratio), UC (Underground Coverage), and GSR (Green Space Ratio) with pass/fail status against the configured limits.
Footprint Calculates the true building footprint area using boolean polygon union of all zones tagged as Ground Floor or Semi-Basement. This gives accurate lot coverage even when zones overlap.
