<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
send few days ago a query concerning a model of a building with DDS and VAV

<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
am sorry to insist but it is crucial for the LEED certification process of this

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
didn't have so much problem to model the Baseline building model. But
concerning the Proposeb building model, it gives me a heating consumption so
low that it is impossible that my model is right. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

I send you the files and I hope someone will find what happen. I check in the </span><span
