Every energy model I've done so far has been for <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>existing buildings, mainly for optimization purposes. However, I received an RFP to model a five-story, 41,500 sq. ft. building<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>that's currently on the design phase and is pursuing the LEED-NC Silver certification. I really have no idea what would be a fair <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>price for this model since I'm going to have to use Appendix G (ASHRAE 90.1) to evaluate the difference between the base <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>and proposed buildings.
