<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>It appears to me nobody has noticed William’s actual
question… :O<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I think the total under the “Wall SQ FT” column in
the provided table is causing you some unnecessary confusion, William. While
one can (apparently) debate a variety of approaches, you should be able to
define 0.40*55,105.72 = 22,042 SF of fenestration on the ~55k SF of envelope
area =).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Uniform, horizontal bands as described in 90.1 is one approach,
but are not necessary the easiest – it depends on your modeling program
and preferences. If you are under 90.1-2007 as you suggest, be cautious that a
building in strict compliance with 90.1-2004 may not necessarily maintain the proportions
between faces as required under 2007. In effect, 2007 is no longer “rewarding”
designers choosing to not place their windows on Northern facades. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>The alternative to defining horizontal bands (and also my
personal preference) would be to start with your proposed, actual layout, and simply
multiply the width (or height) of each vertical fenestration by 40%/[actual WWR]
= (40/60.66) = 0.6594… in your case. I’d advise utilizing excel to
carry out the numbers and minimize rounding errors as they will add up. After
this procedure, your WWR should calculate to 40%. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Neither approach described (uniform reductions of an actual
layout & continuous horizontal bands) is “wrong,” though 2004’s
wording appears rigid. The “proportionate reduction” approach
described by myself, Carol and Jason has been in use successfully for LEED
projects under 90.1-2004. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>In any case, 90.1-2007 has removed the phrase “continuous
horizontal bands” as Cheney illustrates. Either approach is acceptable,
and which one should pursue is more practically a matter of what software
package you’re using and which method is the easiest for the modeler.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Hi
Will,<b><br>
<br>
</b>I think your answer is here:<b><br>
<br>
The fenestration area in the baseline building shall be equal to the
fenestration area in the proposed building or 40% of the exterior wall,
whichever is less.</b></span><br>
<br>
Based on your table you need to reduce the window area to be 40% of the overall
wall area, making it a band as described, except for the North wall with 0% glass
as it is already less than 40%.<br>
<br>
Happy Holidays!<br>
