Schedule w/ calculated parameter that calcs totals from two different parameters

I work in government contracts where all area calculations need to include any outdoor covered areas(aka canopies, overhangs, etc) into the total gross area.  The kicker is that these areas are always valued at 1/2 the actual floor area they cover (Example: 4' x 6' Canopy = 12 SF in the total gross area calculation).

 

I want to know if there is a way to create a schedule that can add a building footprint area or room areas with a half value for the "covered" area which are at half value to create a total gross area that is accurate per the necessary area values.

 

If this is the correct first step, I have already created an formatted parameter to calculate areas to be 1/2 the true value but after that I cannot figure out a way to have the correct total value tabulated.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Joe

Do you mean you have an empty parameter field inserted, or a calculated parameter written? The later is how you would do it. For instance: (FieldA X FieldB)/2.  But, somehow I think you know that already.  What are meaning by: "have the correct total value tabulated".

Yes, I already created a column for that but my goal is to have a calculated total(whether it appears at the bottom of the schedule per the "conditional formatting" under the "formatting" tab of "schedule properties" or is a calculated parameter itself) that combines specific areas(covered areas that are 1/2 the true area value) with the rest of the building footprint area(true area value). 

 

Does that clarify at all?

Well, sort of. I think you might be also talking Sorting/Grouping and Formatting functions (e.g. itemizing, totaling, etc). Could you post a picture of what you have so far to help me visualize?
