[Equest-users] How to model a bldg with different roof levels?

[Alex Krickx]

It might be easier to make the two shells stacked instead of side-by-side. That way, you can specify that the top shell is open to below and by zoning the bottom shell properly, you can make the part with the high ceiling open to above. Just a thought.

Subject: [Equest-users] How to model a bldg with different roof levels?

Hello everyone,

I was trying to model a bldg with 50% area at 25 feet high and remaining area at 10 feet. How can I specify different heights in  the footprint of this bldg. in eQUEST?  I tried to draw in DD Wizard. First I drew a footprint with 25-foot height, then I tied to create a new shell with 10-foot height. I wasn't able to put two shells together. Also, I didn't know how to change exterior walls to interior.

Any help would be appreciated .

Regards,
Aman
