I want to calculate the volume of a model.

I believe the volume should be the same as the area since I have extruded the face with 1m but it shows a different value.

I suspect it is because it consists of loose parts. I hope the addon is able to still calculate the volume, it does it right with the area calculation. If so, does anybody know how I can still generate a good volume calculation with the addon when an object has loose parts?

    $\begingroup$ A cube with 2 m on each axis has a volume of 2 m · 2 m · 2 m = (2 m)³ = 8 m³. The screenshot says 8.0 m³, so what exactly is wrong there? $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Is your scale applied? See blender.stackexchange.com/questions/47318/… $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Thank you for your response and sorry for my late reply, I was on vacation. I have now attached the file. As you will see the base area is 6608m². however the volume result after extruding it 1 meter in the z axis is 1421m³. The scale is applied. $\endgroup$
