Built-in Rule Packs

Start with the shipped rule packs, then inspect the rules and thresholds for your project.

Built-in packs group practical design checks. Their thresholds are configurable defaults, not a statement that a site meets local law, accessibility requirements or pool-safety regulations. Enable only the packs whose actual rules match your design, and read the individual rule definitions.

1

Choose a shipped pack

Open Design Rules → Packs. Current packs are Residential Garden Core, Pool Garden Safety, Accessibility and Circulation and Planting Good Practice. Toggle a pack to add or pause its rules.

2

Review Residential Garden Core

Inspect its tree, structure and circulation checks in Rules. Read the subject/reference classes, measurement basis and current threshold. Do not assume a label such as “structure” includes every object with a similar visual appearance.

3

Review pool and access checks

Use Pool Garden Safety for its supported pool-related clearance checks, and Accessibility and Circulation for its supported path/access checks. These are advisory design validation tools; enabling a pack does not perform a professional site inspection or certify statutory compliance.

4

Review planting checks

Use Planting Good Practice for supported spacing and planting-overlap checks. Center spacing, edge clearance and mature spread measure different relationships. Check that the object’s classification and size data represent the intended planting.

5

Adjust and run

Change supported thresholds and enabled states in Rules, then choose Run full check. Pausing and resuming a pack preserves prior individual rule choices. Review failures and unsupported checks alongside the issue count; no displayed issue does not prove every possible condition was checked.
