[Bldg-sim] Model External Shading Devices for LEED compliance

Thanks for the fast reply. But it is possible, anyway, to model the baseline
building with external shading devices, right?

Hi,

Appendix G allows you to claim credit for shading designs/devices.
Therefore, the baseline building is not required to have shading
devices/projections.

Dear All,

 

I am new to Leed compliance simulations and I would like to know how to
model external shading devices in the proposed and baseline building.
Appendix G, Table G3.1 – 5. Building Envelope, is clear about permanent
shading devices being allowed for the proposed building. But what about the
baseline building? Do you model the external shading devices in the baseline
building as well?

 

I´d appreciate any help on the matter.

 

Regards,

Lizzy
