Though not an explicit attribute or function value in and of itself, the height of a [[building]] for the water overlay is calculated as follows:
The building height for the water overlay is calculated as follows:
: ''building height = floors * FLOOR_HEIGHT_M''
: ''building height = floors * FLOOR_HEIGHT_M''
where the FLOOR_HEIGHT_M is the building's attribute value which dictates the height of an individual floor, and floors is the amount of floors of the building's section.
where FLOOR_HEIGHT_M is the height of a single floor, and floors is the number of floors in the section.

The height of buildings is taken into account when computing the flow of water above ground. Buildings are computed to have at most a height of [[Design flood elevation m model attribute (Water Overlay)|DESIGN_FLOOD_ELEVATION_M]]. Lower buildings retain their own building height. Taller buildings have their height capped at the [[Design flood elevation m model attribute (Water Overlay)|DESIGN_FLOOD_ELEVATION_M]] attribute's value.
The height of buildings is taken into account when computing the flow of water above ground. Building height is capped at [[Design flood elevation m (Water Overlay)|DESIGN_FLOOD_ELEVATION_M]]; shorter buildings retain their actual height.

Icon Attribute Unit Range Description
FLOOR_HEIGHT_M m The height of a floor in a building. Additionally each section of a building can have a different amount of floors.

Building height

The building height for the water overlay is calculated as follows:

building height = floors * FLOOR_HEIGHT_M

where FLOOR_HEIGHT_M is the height of a single floor, and floors is the number of floors in the section.

Building height in water model

The height of buildings is taken into account when computing the flow of water above ground. Building height is capped at DESIGN_FLOOD_ELEVATION_M; shorter buildings retain their actual height.
