Angles of less than 270 degrees don't need a corner guard. Angles greater than, are angles that do receive a corner guard because it's an outside angle. We use Dynamo to look at all the lines around the room, find out the angle of each intersection and determine whether or not we want to place a corner guard at that angle.
