You can create custom constructions with the following layers. You will
need to adjust the thickness of the insulation layers slightly to
achieve the exact U-factor (inverse of overall R-value), but here is a
good starting point:
 
Roof (see A2.2.1): Built-up roofing, Polystyrene 4 in (R-5/in)
Walls (see A3.3.1): 1" Stucco, 2 in Polystyrene, create a material based
on resistance with a R-value of 6.0 to represent the effective R-value
of the steel studs plus batt insulation (Table A3.3), 5/8 in gypsum wall
board.

Subject: [Equest-users] Materials for baseline design
 
 
Hello all,
 
We are using eQuest for LEED and we are to create a baseline design of
our building. Characteristics for baseline construction materials
(walls,roof,floor, etc) must be equal to ASHRAE 90.1 (for our zone it is
table 5.5-6, p.24) data:
 
Roof - Insulation entirely above deck - U-0.048 / R-20.0 c.i.
Walls - Steel framed - U-0.064 / R-13.0+R-7.5c.i.
Slab-on-grade floors - unheated - F-0.540 / R-10 for 24 in.
 
Can anyone help to choose appropriate consructions/materials from eQuest
screen?
We are not sure what to choose as we are located in Europe and use
another parametrs and names.
 
Thank you!
 
 
Kseniya L.
