# Longitudinal Flooring

**Longitudinal Flooring** - main settings for the layout of Structural Framing families.

**Type** - select Structural Framing family which should be used for slab layout

**Array from Start, End** - layout of Structural Framing elements will start from one side of the Floor and will continue to the other side of the floor with defined spacing and number of elements. Start is the location of Span direction symbol in Floor boundary.

**Spacing** - distance between Structural Framing elements.

**Number** - number of elements that will be created starting from selected side. It could be any big number if you want to fill the whole reference slab; once it reaches the end edge of the slab, it will not generate more slabs than needed.&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/3d-modeling-and-design/precast-concrete/feature-descriptions/floor-concrete-slabs/configuration-window/longitudinal-flooring.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
