G-14 in the ASHRAE 90.1-2004 User's Manual states that "self-shading" (in the
case of an L-shaped building for instance) is ignored in the baseline building
but credited to the proposed building when it is a benefit.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=171023714-27022008><FONT face=Calibri>Can anyone confirm or
refute that <U>shading provided by adjacent buildings</U> is allowed to be
included when modeling according to ASHRAE 90.1 PRM or ECB
protocol? I am not able to find any statements in the document related
to this specific issue. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=171023714-27022008><FONT face=Calibri>If it is allowed, does
it need to be provided on both proposed design and baseline models? Or
can it only be modeled on the proposed design like all other shading
devices? </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
