Both BLAST and EnergyPlus accept a "ceiling height" as input.  This is for 
cases that the programs can't figure out the zone height on their own.  It 
is then used in the Volume calculation.  A negative number here allows 
EnergyPlus to calculate the ceiling height on its own.  If one is entered, 
however, then that is used in the calculations (at least in 1.0.1).

This is a little buggy in 1.0.0 but has been fixed in 1.0.1
