[Equest-users] Zoning in different floors - eQuest

[Anand.Varahala at us.schneider-electric.com]

Hello All,

I'm modeling a two floor building with very different usage (first floor, 
mostly kitchen, dining area and rest rooms; second floor has mostly 
offices and conference rooms). So, zoning for HVAC would be quite 
different for both the floors. Is there a way I can model the building as 
a single shell with different zoning for the floors? Or, do I have to 
model each floor as an individual shell?

Also, along the south wall there is an "atrium" with a 'gallery' in the 
second floor from which one can look down into the first! How exactly do I 
model that? I can go to zoning characteristics and select that zone to be 
a multi-level atrium, but what do I do when I define second floor? 

I would greatly appreciate if you can help me answer these Questions. 
Thank you in advance.
-Anand
