NOTE Windows with no window shape specified are assumed to be rectangular.
Windows with no operation specified are assumed to be fixed.
Example Window Style Names:
Example NameWindow Style Description
PictureA rectangular Picture Window.
Casement - Double - ArchtopAn arched double casement window.
Awning - AssyAn awning window, to be used explicitly
in a door/window assembly.
IMPORTANT It is important to indicate those windows that are intended explicitly
for assemblies. They will frequently have conditions defined that will not look
correct when inserted into a wall independently from the assembly for which they
were defined.
Best Practices for Window Styles:
■ All window components should have materials assigned to them.
■ Window styles should be classified for more control with scheduling and
display control. As with walls, the Uniformat II Classification definition
contains a ready-made list of classifications, including basic window
classifications.
■ In the Model display representations of window components should follow
“By Material” settings.
■ In the “Elevation” display representations components should be assigned
colors with the display rules of your 2D Section/Elevation styles in mind.
Using colors that are coordinated with those styles can be used to automate
linework properties in section and elevation objects.
Door/Window Assembly Styles

The naming convention for door/window assemblies should reflect as much
as possible the infill elements that they include, any cell adjustment parameters
