Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Designbuilder 90.1 baseline



I think DB assumes that you will create the Baseline model first, then make a copy and adapt it to the Proposed specifications.
This is backwards from ASHRAE and LEED's normal recommendation, but is not a big shift or difficult to do.  Up until recently it was my normal practice to create the Baseline first because design details are sometimes slow to be decided upon :(.  More recently, I see advantages in creating the Proposed system first, but it's not a major issue.

Check with DB. They are aware of this issue. I don't know if they've solved it yet.

I dont know if anyone here has experience on DesignBuilder. I noticed designbuilder can create either proposed or 90.1 baseline building based on the template. But if I created a proposed building and want to convert it into 90.1 baseline, is there a quick way to do it?

Many thanks
HJ
