  • Abstract
    A 3D air-termination design-support system for automatically estimating collection areas and analyzing areas of buildings that are either protected or unprotected by an air-termination system in three dimensions was developed for designing external lightning-protection systems. Using this system makes it possible to analyze complex building forms and design air-termination systems with efficiency and accuracy.
