Check Spaces

Check Spaces opens a modal, editable grid of every MEP space in the model across two tabs that share the same rows. The General tab mirrors Check Rooms plus Volume — Number, Name, Base Level, Base Offset, Top Level, Top Offset, Area, Volume, and Status (Placed / Unplaced / Redundant). The Loads tab exposes the MEP values — HVAC Zone, Space Type, Occupants, Specified Lighting Load, Specified Power Load, and the engine-computed Design and Calculated heating/cooling loads. Filter by level, edit the writable fields inline, delete selected spaces, and highlight a space in the model. Apply writes inside a session; Reset or Cancel rolls it all back.

1. In the B45 Labs | Coordination tab, open the QA/QC panel and click Check Spaces.
2. Use the General tab for identity and placement and the Loads tab for MEP values; the Level filter and search narrow both.
3. Edit the writable fields inline — Number, Name, offsets, Top Level, Occupants, Specified Lighting/Power Load, and Space Type — or select redundant/unplaced spaces to delete.
4. Click Highlight to select a space and navigate to its plan view.
5. Click Apply to write the changes with the window still open, or Reset to roll the session back to the model's original state.
6. Click OK to commit and close, or Cancel to discard the entire session.

• The Status column flags Unplaced and Redundant spaces at a glance — the same triage as Check Rooms.
• On the Loads tab, a load that reads "—" is uncalculated (zero), which separates a never-run space from a genuinely zero one.
• Design loads are your inputs; the paired Calculated heating/cooling loads are the energy engine's output — compare them to judge fit.
• Volume shows only when Areas and Volumes is enabled in Area & Volume Computations; otherwise it reads "—".
