NEW MATERIALS AND NON STANDARD BUILDING ELEMENTS
INSULATION
GLAZING
- Glazing opening settings defaulting to 0%.
- Mandatory inclusion of insect screens
- Modelling a partly glazed external door?
- How to model glazing shading offsets
- How do I model default obscure, frosted, laminated acoustic single clear glass?
- Selecting a U & SHGC window system not available within the BERS window library?
EAVES, OFFSETS AND SHADING
- Adding Shading & Obstructions for multi level dwellings
- Modelling 2 different shading devices on one wall e.g. alfresco or a verandah above the lower glazing and eaves above high-light glazing.
- Modelling eaves and adding a node to accurately reflect different eave / alfresco widths within the same external wall.
- Solar vergola, pergola and shade sails or the like.
VENTILATION AND AIRFLOW
ZONING
- What happens to the floor specification if a cantilevered section is open to outside air and the area is not specified?
- Resolving a wall less than 150mm error message?
- How do we model stairs or a multi-level void?
- Lifts
- Unzoned verandah - modelling an alfresco ceiling connected to the main roof space.
- Duplexes modelled as as one building or 2 separate buildings?

REPORTS

- Amending Batch Simulation Climate Zone Postcodes i.e. CZ 13 postcode 6043 can be amended to 6000
- Simulation issue without a DP number being entered.
- Area adjustment area. Why adjusted MJ/m2 instead of actual MJ/m2.
