BHoM_Engine

Feature

BHoM_Engine: EventRecorded event added together with the correspondent EventArgs
Environment_Engine: Created a method for SetRegionGeometry
Facade_Engine: Update Methods to Handle UValueContinuous Fragment
Geometry_Engine: Added Query.FilterByNormal method
- Query.FilterByNormal() Query method added in the Geometry_Engine for lists of PlanarSurface objects
Security Engine: Camera Field of View
Spatial_Engine: bounding box query for profiles added
Structure_Engine: Add wall(panel) and floor(panel) and SurfaceElement(panel)
- Fixed bug in Physical.Create.Wall which ignored internal edges
- Added Wall(Panel), Floor(Panel) and ISurface(Panel, usage) to convert panels to physical surface elements
- Added IConstruction(ISurfaceProperty) to convert surface properties into Physical IConstructions. Convert to maintain total depth and material quantities, but may not accurately reflect geometry or structural properties of the SurfaceProperty. Ribbed properties will contain a void layer to reflect the missing concrete. Thus, it is not a 1:1 translation, until Physical IConstructions can represent the full range of objects represented by ISurfaceProperties.
- Added IVolumePerArea(Construction) matching the IVolumePerArea(SurfaceProperty) which gets the effective thickness of solid materials (important for comparison to MaterialComposition in material takeoff)
- Implemented IVolumePerArea() in SolidVolume() for ISurface and IOpening
