just one (since you have to run each orientation and average it, and since you
discount self shading). The designed building will self shade though, so you
might want to build that into the study. Might not be that significant though
(might not be worth the effort of modeling all buildings).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

complex with identical buildings in different orientations. To do energy
analysis for LEED in eQUEST does one need to model the entire complex (all
buildings together)? Or can one just model one of the typical buildings and run
that model in the various orientations and sum up energy
use?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
