[Bldg-sim] Azimuth in equest

[Shaun Martin]

Thanks Jeff and John.  Yes, the building azimuth is north-south (actually
180 deg).  The space azimuth is 0 deg.  Only the wall is 1.27 deg off
straight east.  

"East"  should be anything between 67.5 and 112.5 deg.

 Shaun,

 

Also, within DOE-2 simulations there are (3) orientations: the building, the
space and the exterior/interior surface. Hence, you can easily have a -91.27
= northeast if you don't know all (3) orientations. You can see this in the
LV- or verification reports for LOADS. You should be able to see this in the
"viewer" as well (of which there are several).

 

Jeff

I am going to guess your Ploygon is part of a larger building. When you say
you set the Azimuth of the Polygon, what is the Azimuth of the Building
itself?

In equest, SHAPE = POLYGON  determines the x, y, z, azimuth.  Does anybody
happen know why a wall with an azimuth of -91.27 deg would be listed as
NORTH-EAST in the LV-D report?  Is there any easy way to fix this without
redoing all the polygons?  (Specifying the AZIMUTH does not work.)

 

Thanks,
