During a EAc1 training seminar put on by the USGBC I distinctly remember
them saying that you shouldn't account for shading from other structures,
there is no way to be sure that the other structure will remain for the life
of the building that you are modeling.

Hi

 

A quick browse through appendix G doesn't mention local buildings in the
shading. Is it true local buildings aren't considered in the shading calc
for A90?
