[BLDG-SIM] Pitched roofs and eQUEST.

[Liu, Bing]

If you use wizard screen for building geometry input, you will find a
check box of pitched roof on the wizard screen of Building Footprint.
After checking this box, you can define the pitch roof degree and other
related data.

Hope it helps,

Bing

   Hi,
      Im doing a energy efficiency simulation project
for college and I decided to use eQUEST due to its
ease of use. The building i've been assigned to
simulate is an old building (~1940) thats been
redesigned inside. It has a sort of a dormer floor on
the top (pitched roof with many windows jutting out
facing horizontally). Im looking for advice on how
best to simulate: top floor pitched roof (can't be
shown graphically but i assume it takes the pitch into
account in it calucations) or top floor flat?. Is
there any easy to use simulation that could work with
the type of roof I have  or is there something in
eQUEST i've missed?. 
    Thanks alot,
          Fearghal O'Connor, UCD.
