[BLDG-SIM] Green building Studio + Autodesk Building System

[Bing Dong]

Hi,
  
  I created a single box building with six surfaces in ABS and add espace  and ezone to it. WHen I exporting gbXML file, it always says "interior  surface does not have an adjacent set" . 
  
  Any ideas?
  
  THanks,

In   other words, there is no way to define the adjacency of an espace ceiling to   another espace floor.  We have told Autodesk about this problem   GBS.
   
  On the other hand, GBS requires adjacencies to be defined   for the model to run.  For many models the results would   be sufficiently accurate if internal partitions were treated as   adiabatic.  If GBS had a switch to ignore vertical adjacencies   and insert adiabatic partition instead, ABS and GBS would work   together.  
   
  In conclusion, ABS epaces and GBS do not work together   for multi story buildings because of the vertical adjacency problem.    Single floor buildings should work although you have to be careful with the   internal load definitions because all the ABS values get pulled into the GBS   model.

    Hi there, I have a question   regarding to converting GBXML from ABS to GBS. GBS keep giving me error messages   such as “Surface id= su13_Floor, an InteriorFloor, should have two spaces   adjacent to it. It has 1 defined.“ As such, I constructed a test run with only 1   espace on first level and 1 espace on second level. The second level espace is   perfectly line up above the first level espace. The error message remains with   the second level spaces’ floor type set to “Interior Space.” The error message   only goes away when the floor type is changed to “Raised Floor.” However, I   thought “raised floor” is referring to under floor distribution. Does Autodesk   has different terminology? Is it the right setting for slab to slab   construction?  If not, what other possibility for the   error?
   
  Also, from my other test run, I   found out that if the space has partial roof, it needs to be separated by two   espaces.
   
  Many   thanks!!!!!
