# Create a floor

## Create a floor

A floor is created like a regular asset via the "Create asset" menu.

However, several special features must be taken into account:

1. As the asset type, "Floor" must be selected
2. A floor plan must be assigned
3. The floor must be subordinated to a building

Both special features are explained in the following documentation.
