021 Introduction to GDL Doors

An introduction to the complex, convoluted, and confusing subject of Doors (& Windows). Hang on to your hat! I could go on for hours but have kept this as short as possible. Apologies for the audio – my mic was misbehaving; I cleaned it up as much as I could. Completed in ARCHICAD 27.
