Measuring instruction and the measurement report

· 2 min read

For the Dutch standard: the measurement sheet per floor, a sum that must close, and a measurement report as PDF.

The measurement sheet of the Dutch measuring instruction, per floor, with the closing sum.
  1. 1. Open it

    Open Survey with ⌥2 or the editor menu, and choose the tab Measurement sheet. A Dutch plan opens on it. If the plan is not Dutch, click Use the Dutch measuring instruction.

  2. 2. Check the sheet

    Per floor you see every area part. A green line says The sum closes; a red one shows where it does not. Under What needs a look, Show jumps to the spot.

  3. 3. Gross volume

    The gross volume of each level follows the roof as you drew it: every wing of an L, T or U shape, a pitch per side and every dormer, up to the top of the roof build-up. A top level without a roof shows a dot, and the report waits for the roof.

  4. 4. Confirm the walls

    Mark each interior wall as load-bearing or not. It does not change the GO, but it does change the NEN 2580 number and the Ag.

  5. 5. Make the report

    Choose Indicative or Professional, fill in the Report details and click Make the measurement report (PDF). The report is in Dutch.

  6. 6. Address from your account

    Is this home in your account with an address (My homes), then street and number, postcode and place are filled in for you. You can change them; Use the address of the home puts it back.

  7. 7. Professional report and FML

    The indicative report stays free, with the small mark. The professional report and the FML are part of Pro, Team or a home with the measurement report ($7.50, 30 days). A home you unlocked for $5 adds the report for the difference ($2.50). During the beta it is free within your 10 homes a month; in Pro or Team the home counts as one of the new homes of the month. The line under the buttons says what applies to this home.

  8. 8. Made on our server

    Our server makes the professional report and the FML, from the version in your account, after it checks what applies to this home. The editor first saves your last change. Without a connection, or if the home changed in another tab, it says so and nothing is counted. The indicative report is made in your browser, also offline.

  9. 9. Honest about the rules

    The cover, the footer and the way of working name the rule set with its id, version and status. As long as the rules are a proposal, a professional report is a concept, never final.

  10. 10. For Funda

    Package for Funda (ZIP) holds the FML, a PNG per level and the report when it is ready. It is also in Export, under For Funda. Funda has not yet confirmed that it accepts FML files from other programs.
