Members

head: Contains the name and the index of the building material.
id: The id of the building material.
manufacturer: The manufacturer of the building material.
description: The description of the building material.
connPriority: The priority of the building material. Used when multiple elements intersect, the higher priority element will be shown at the intersection.
cutFill: Index of the building material’s cut fill.
cutFillPen: Index of the building material’s cut fill foreground pen.
cutFillBackgroundPen: Index of the building material’s cut fill background pen.
cutMaterial: Index of the building material’s cut material.
cutFillOrientation: Orientation of the building material’s cut fill.
thermalConductivity: Thermal Conductivity of the building material.
density: Density of the building material.
heatCapacity: Heat capacity of the building material.
embodiedEnergy: Embodied energy in the building material.
embodiedCarbon: Embodied carbon in the building material.
showUncutLines: Show Contours in Model Views.
doNotParticipateInCollDet: Specifies if the building material does not participate in collision detection.

Remarks

Most of the fields in this structure correspond to the items of the Building Material dialog in Archicad.

Note that in AC17 the Energy Evaluation property parameters (thermalConductivity, density and heatCapacity) have been removed from the API_FilltypeType, they are now part of this structure.

Requirements

Version: API 17 or later
