Wall Materials ​

Each wall has a material and a thickness, which give its estimated signal loss.

The loss is the material's rate per centimetre multiplied by the thickness. It appears in the map data as attenuation_db.

MaterialLoss (dB/cm)Default Thickness
Timber Framed (Drywall)0.310 cm
Brick Veneer0.5511 cm
Concrete / Block0.620 cm
Aerated / Foam Concrete Block (Plastered)0.3713 cm
Ceramic / Poroton Block0.4225 cm
Glass2.01 cm
Steel Frame1.010 cm

WARNING

The rates are approximate 2.4 GHz figures. They are suitable for reasoning about a layout, not for RF engineering.

Select a wall to set its material and thickness on its info card.
