Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Door in wall top & bottom
If you have split your surface into 2 different constructions (and
surfaces), then you will have to also split your door into 2 surfaces
(with the same construction). Each surface of the split door should lie
within the vertices of the corresponding surface it is attached to.
