Shows step-by-step how to define the calculation procedure for determining the required air volumes in LINEAR Building.

  1. In the Project Standards area, define the Standard Calculation Method 1, which is then assigned to all room types as Calculation Method 1.

    By Default, the Calculation Method DIN 1946-6 Domestic Ventilation (12-2019) is set for Residential Buildings, and for Non-Residential Buildings, DIN EN 16798-1 Air Load, Method 1 (03-2022) is set as Standard Calculation Method 1.

  2. Define the Standard Calculation Method 2, which is then assigned to all room types and any exceptions created for rooms or room groups as Calculation Method 2.

  3. If necessary, deactivate the Only show existing room types in the project checkbox to also assign calculation methods to room types that are not part of the current project.

  4. If necessary, assign calculation methods that differ from the standard calculation methods to individual room types in the Calculation Method by Room Type area.

  5. If you want to assign calculation methods that differ from the room type to one or more rooms, click in the Exceptions for Rooms/Room Groups table.

    A new entry is added to the table.

  6. In the Room Group column, click on .

    The Room Groups dialog opens.

  7. Select the rooms for which you want to create the exception.

  8. Enter a Name for the room group and click OK.

    The room group for the exception is being created.

  9. Assign the desired calculation methods to the room group.

You have defined the calculation methods for determining the air volume.
