<ul>
<li>Table G3.1.5(Baseline)(f): All elements of the existing Baseline building envelope shall reflect the existing conditions prior to any revisions that are part of the scope of work being evaluated. [Notes: [1] this only includes existing portions of the building, and does not apply to building additions; [2] there is no exception mandating that elements with changes that are part of the scope of work must be modeled as meeting minimum ASHRAE prescriptive envelope requirements].</li>
<li>Table G3.1.5(Proposed): The building envelope shall be modeled as shown on architectural drawings or as built for existing building envelopes (any changes to the existing building envelope reflected on the architectural drawings would be reflected in the Proposed Case).</li>
