<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=660390815-26062007>I am using
eQUEST to model an elementary school that will be submitted with the projects
LEED documentation. LEED NC 2.2 from October 2005 states that
the proposed building "must be compared against a baseline building
that complies with Appendix G to Standard </SPAN><SPAN
class=660390815-26062007>90.1-2004 (without amendments). The default process
energy cost is 25% of the total energy cost for the baseline building".

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=660390815-26062007>My
question: What is the best way to incorporate a 25% process load into the
eQUEST file? I know that I could put in a misc load into the ASHRAE
baseline building I created, and play with that number until it reaches 25% of
the total energy use, but it seems like there should be a better way to
incorporate this load. </SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
