I have a 42 story tower model. The facade has been modeled using curtain walls, each modelled on a floor by floor basis (42 curtain walls stacked on each other).
I'm trying to create a curtain panel schedule which totals the area of my glazed panels, on a level by level basis.... but when I'm creating the schedule, it doesn't seem like there is a way to tie each panel to the level it appears on (even though each panel sits whithin a curtain wall that has a unique level base constraint)
Anyone know how I could create a schedule which ties levels to curtain panels? Please help!

silana,
FYI, there is no option to add a "base constraint" field in a curtain panel schedule.

I am not trying to schedule the curtain wall, only the panels within the walls. I want to create a schedule that lists all the panels within a curtain wall and gives the total area (for each level)

then use "material takeoff schedule", (two lines below "schedule cuantities" there u have system panel field. And you can add in the comments of curtains the level where they belongs to

ok... but this method requires me to select each panel and add a 'level' comment. I can't understand why the panel would not be tied to the base constraint of the host curtain wall.

Do this: select all the curtains in a floor, then filter the selection checking only panels, add to the instance comments field the level where they are and then make the takeoff schedule.

there's nothing to understand, actually, but programs are not perfect, so you must use them the best way you can.
And no, you dont have to select panel one at a time, you can do it all at once in a 3d front view for instance and add the comment all at once too
