Wrong total building area

Hi!

New in OpenStudio.

The building area expressed in the OpenStudio results is not representative of the building area in my Sketchup model.

I used the Sketchup plugin to model my building. I then used OpenStudio and added some things here and there. When I run the simulation and I open the OpenStudio Results, the total building area shown is 408 ft^2. My building is much bigger than that.

My Sketchup model is in millimeters and I selected SI units in OpenStudio. However, my units still show up in imperial in the OpenStudio results. Could that be linked?

I appreciate your time!
