Post spacing

Setting the post spacing

Your customers can set the length of each balcony leg in the configurator.
This is visualized in the configurator in the 3D area - with the correct number of mullions.
To enable the configurator to calculate this, you must tell the configurator what the maximum mullion spacing is:

  1. To do this, please select 6. Setting the post spacing in the Tutorial tab
  2. This click takes you directly to the settings for the variable Post spacing without infill
  3. Scroll down a little in the sidebar until you reach the Calculated item.
  4. Please enter your maximum post spacing there. The formula takes into account the type of installation (0=supported or 1=projected) and the live load (0.5 kN/m or 1 kN/m)

Example:

The expression Installation type == 0 ? Live load == 0.5 ? 1300 : 990 : Traffic.load == 0.5 ? 1250 : 840 corresponds to the following decision table:

mounting type ->surface-mountedfront-mounted
Traffic load 0.51,300990
Traffic load 1 kN1,250840

Please enter the maximum post spacing for the various railing types (infills) in the same way:

  • Post spacing glass
  • Post spacing railing
  • Post spacing rope
  • Post spacing bar
  • Post spacing perforated sheet
tip

You can find these variables in the backend on the "Post" tab - directly below the hidden variable "Post spacing without infill"

tip

If you have demolished the formula in your entries, you can simply copy the original state from here and edit it again:
Mounting.type == 0 ? Traffic load == 0.5 ? 1300 : 990 : Traffic.load == 0.5 ? 1250 : 840
