[BLDG-SIM] Follow up Elevator Question

[Vikram Sami]

Sorry - this is my first elevator model. 
 
ASHRAE is not very specific (or at least I didn't find a place where it
was) about elevator power limitations. What wattage should I use for my
base building?

Vikram---


Regarding your elevator question, eQUEST has a set of library schedules
for elevator usage in several types of buildings (office, apartments,
etc.)  These seem reasonable and appear to be based off of the ASHRAE
schedules that are found in the 90.1-2004 User's Manual.

Going through the LEED 2.2 requirements, I see that site lighting needs
to be modeled as well. Has anyone done this in eQUEST? If so - how is it
modeled? Do you set up another lighting source with schedule? I looked
in the project & site requirements and didn't see a site lighting
option.

Also - I am assuming you model elevators in the internal loads/equipment
tab. Does anyone have experience scheduling elevator usage? What kind of
schedule do you set for them?

Lastly - the baseline requirements for Appendix G requires that there is
no self shading. Can you set that in eQUEST?
