<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I want to use eQUEST to model a building that has a base
footprint on the lower levels but upper levels are not contiguous (like
separate towers rising from the base). What is the best way to define the
upper levels? If I define the polygon shape for the upper levels but don’t
fill it in completely with the building, will eQUEST ignore the floor area between
the towers that is not assigned to zones? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
