<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Vision panels should be modelled as windows, but
the spandrel (opaque) areas will be external walls. In this case your
spandrel glass will be conductive and absorptive, but will not transmit as it
isn't a window ... Spandrel glass is often colour back and will thus is
usually very absorptive. Layering of the external wal layers will be like
any other construction, but be mindful of the aluminium bridging if there are no
thermal breaks.</FONT></DIV>
