[Equest-users] Modeling 2nd bldg and ramada roof

[Steven Savich]

Aleks,

1st Assumption - the ramada shade structure that you're talking about is an
open structure with no enclosed zones and with no "interior" energy
consumption.  Let me know if this is an incorrect assumption.

Working from the wizard, you can set up two separate shells and specify how
far apart the shells (read "building" for "shell") are in the Wizard.  You
could simulate a shade structure as a building shade, or a set of building
shades, in the detailed data edit.  If the shade structure has energy
consumption from exterior lights, that consumption can be simulated as a
direct electrical meter load in the utilities tab of the detailed data edit
mode.

The equest wizard will generate separate schedules for the two buildings.
If the buildings have identical operation periods, you can probably delete
the duplicate schedule set and reassign everything to the primary schedule
set.

Let me know if you questions.

I have a project which has two buildings with a ramada shade structure
shading the open area between the two buildings.  Is it possible to model
all three structure in the same eQuest file?  If yes, how do I go about it?
Thanks,
Aleks Webster
