You also need to account for the frame width which gets equally distributed around the window and beyond the window dimensions.

Ramana,
Check your window sizes - yyou probably have a larger (or equal) window area than your wall area.

Hello all,
I am pasting below, error lines from the eQUEST BDL file. eQUEST crashes and when the project is reopened, most external walls would have disappeared. Any help on how to rectify this problem is appreciated.
