Asunto: [EnergyPlus_Support] building orientation
 
 

Hi E+ experts

I have a question regarding the way of orientating the building in Sketchup thus Open studio.  I've found two different ways and I'm confused which one is the right one to use, I'm afraid that if I use both, I would be giving the totally wrong orientation to my building.

In the Open Studio Inspector, if I click on the Open Studio Geometry (section) then OS:Building I have the 'North Axis' to be set. Then, in the same section but OS:Space, I have the 'Direction to Relative North' if I set this one, the building moves to the right orientation. But which one is the right to use?

Can anyone give me a hint please? Thanks in Advance!

Sthe
