## 2.2. Creating plans of storeys as base for project

A storey plan is in practice an indispensable component for designing a floor heating system, it is also often used in the design of radiator heating systems. Therefore we start explaining the process of creating a project with a description of the method of preparing such plan.

! If a building consists of many storeys and if we want to have a plan of each storey in the project, a separate worksheet must be provided for each storey.

The storey plan may be drawn directly in the application with the use of available tools and objects, or it may be imported from a DXF or DWG file with walls, windows and doors identified. It is also possible to load a scanned drawing (or read in a DWG / DXF file as a drawing – without identification of walls, windows and doors) and obtain a background on which walls, windows and doors may be drawn with the use of available tools and objects or just the areas of individual rooms may be indicated. In this last case it will not be possible to directly calculate heat losses with Instal-heat&energy.
