I added: Report,Surfaces,DETAILS; to your file. That provided more
details on
the azimuth, tilt, etc. in the EIO file. This helped me find the problems.

1. The Porta Frente (Metal) and Porta Fundos(Metal) are too large. The
wall that
they are in must completely surround them--so you can't have their lower Z
coordinate
at 0 but you can have it at 0.001.

2. In the EIO report, PAREDE DOS FUNDOS has an azimuth of 65 while PORTA
FUNDOS (VIDRO) and PORTA FUNDOS(METAL) have azimuths of 245 (facing the
other way).

3. Then I looked at your geometry--it says clockwise but most of the
vertices are entered
counterclockwise. When I changed that, the errors go away (except for the
no. 2 above,
facing the wrong way).

4. This then gives errors on your floor and roof (these vertices must be
entered
clockwise).

This means that your subsurface is not in the plane of
the base surface. Suggest uploading to the files
area of the EnergyPlus_Support Yahoo Group so
that we can look at it.

I am carrying through the thermal evaluation of a social house. But I do
not obtain to find what cause the error below. Already I revised the
data
entry, the direction of the vertex and seems to be all certainty. Thus
story with your aid.
