Project Settings

Settings is where a project’s inputs live: what it is, how big, which calculation applies, which models it holds, and the site and energy figures behind stages A4, A5, and B6. One Save applies every section at once. Open it from Settings at the bottom of the project rail.

​

Reading the right-hand column

Your limit value shows the budget the project is judged against, in kgCO₂-eq/m²/year, and where it came from. When the scheme states no limit of its own, the value is the one entered for this project. Sections is both a table of contents and a status list: Under the list you get a plain-language count — All 6 required sections complete, 2 sections are still empty, 1 of 8 sections needs attention before this configuration can be saved. Manage holds the project-level actions: Integrations, Members, Clone, and Delete project.

​

Project

Name, status, and the construction and commissioning years. Optional details collapses the rest — project number, users, builder, client, and LCA responsible.

​

Building area

Gross area above and below ground, how much of that is heated, and the areas the result is measured against. Building type decides which limit value applies. Floors and heated area unlock once each ground area is set. No basement? Leave below ground empty or at 0.

​

Calculation

The calculation type sets which stages are included, and those decide the remaining steps.

• Consideration period comes from the calculation type and is read-only.
• Limit value is what the dashboard measures against.
• The life-cycle stages bar shows what the scheme covers — Production (A1–A3), Construction (A4–A5), Use (B1–B7), End of Life (C1–C4), and Beyond System Boundary (D).

​

Models

A model holds one trade or discipline’s geometry, published through a 3D model connection. Naming one here does not require a connection yet. Turn on the models this project should include, name new ones, and use Connect a 3D model to link the project to Speckle. A model that has never received geometry is marked No version published yet.

​

Classification

The classification code on each element is what groups the results. Say which system the model follows and which parameter holds the code. The parameter is read every time a new version arrives through Speckle. If elements come in without a code, AI Classification can propose one.

​

Transport (A4)

Distances and vehicle types for getting materials to site. The defaults come from the country’s data. What you set here is the default; per-material distances are set in Transport Mapping.

​

Installation (A5)

Energy, fuel, and earth moved on site during construction, plus material wastage. Heat supply, electricity supply, and machinery fuel each take a data source, a supply type, and a consumption figure — pick the data source first, it unlocks the rest.

​

Energy use (B6)

Operational energy. The figures come from the building’s energy frame calculation. Exported electricity covers what the building sends back to the grid, from solar panels and similar. Validation records who checked the energy figures and when — required once any energy is entered.

​

Integrations

External platforms that publish geometry into this project’s models. Connecting is account-wide and applies immediately — it is not part of this page’s Save. Once connected, the row shows the models in sync and when they were last published.

​

Members

Who can open this project, and what each of them is allowed to change. Search for a user, choose a role, and Invite. These are project roles — they are independent of the workspace-level role set in Account and user settings.

​

Clone a project

Clone copies this project’s current state — materials, mappings, settings, team, and history so far — into a new project, leaving this one untouched. See Clone a project.

​

Delete a project

Deleting removes its models, mappings, and results for everyone on it. This cannot be undone.
