Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Can we use vertical insulation and under slab insulation together in slab.exe ?

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

The Slab program will model under slab insulation or vertical insulation, but 
not both together.

The presence of vertical insulation is controlled by the IVINS field in the 
Insulation object.  If this field is set to zero, then there is no vertical 
insulation.
