[Bldg-sim] U Value

[Carol Gardner]

Hi Sambav,

If it's a below grade wall absorptance should not be a factor since the term
absorptance refers to the ability of a body to absorb light. Unless light is
somehow striking your underground wall absorptance should not be an issue.
eQUEST will know this, I'm sure.
