Thank you for the quick responses, Linda and Dr. Li!
Dr. Li, all surfaces are defined in detailed format.
Following Linda's directions I checked all roofs and they are reported correctly. But what I noticed, is that "Wall area based on [>=60,<=120] degrees (tilt)" check includes all walls with Outside Boundary Condition = Ground and the "user entered Wall class surfaces" check does not!
I changed the Outside Boundary Condition of these walls to Outdoors just to confirm and the warning did not show. When I changed it back to Ground, the warning appeared again. Is there any workaround in this situation or should I simply ignore the warning?
Thank you!
Miroslav

You can do the Output:Surfaces:List, Details to see what is considered a wall according to your classes.
Or it might be easier to just put "DetailedWWR_DEBUG;" in your input file and look at the .dbg file to see a brief set of reports that shows what is included for both. No, this report is not documented at the present time.

Hello Everybody,
Where can I find more information on the following error:
** Warning ** WriteVeriSumTable: InputVerificationsAndResultsSummary:
Wall area based on [>=60,<=120] degrees (tilt) as walls
** ~~~ ** differs ~17.6% from user entered Wall class surfaces.
Degree calculation based on ASHRAE 90.1 wall definitions.
** ~~~ ** Calculated based on degrees=[5167.071] m2, Calculated
from user entered Wall class surfaces=[4393.927] m2.
** ~~~ ** Check classes of surfaces and tilts for discrepancies.
The building that I model has inclined roofs which I think are causing
this. But the incline of the roof surfaces is less than 20 degrees, so
they shouldn't be considered as walls judging by "Wall area based on
[>=60,<=120] degrees (tilt) as walls".
I searched the documentation but did not find anything on this topic.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you!
Miroslav
