Level of Detailing

The system has certain restrictions on the accuracy of the calculations. The restrictions are listed below.

• End cuts of profiles are not taken into account.

• When profiles cross a limit, the "cut" is assumed to be perpendicular even if the profile passes the limiting plane at an angle.

• Areas of brackets are always calculated for the whole bracket even if it crosses a limit. Exception: A bracket in the same plane as the panel it belongs to will be calculated only on one side if that has been specified for the 'mother' panel.

• The painting area will not be reduced for the common area of an overlapped profile and bracket. The same is true for overlapping profiles. However, the area of the root of profiles will be subtracted from that of the plates.

• Clips will not be included in the calculations.

• In the calculation of a shell region, there is always assumed to be two opposite limits parallel to a principal plane, for example, two parallel frame planes. This restriction is not valid for a curved panel which may be of any shape.
