Thank you for your input Bill, very much appreciated.
I'm always looking for ways to save time in the modeling. Having a reliable way of importing an architectural model into eQUEST would most likely go along that way.
I'm wondering what's the level of success of this method and how exactly the zoning would be done.

I'll try to look a little more into this.

We have a reliable DOE-2, E+ and gbXML export from both GBS and Insight 360 of the Revit Energy Analytical Model.  There are several energy settings options which you can specify in creating this model.  Though the surfaces/geometry from architectural model may be broken-up or consolidated in the model creation, it is within 1% of the total area/volume.

If you need any assistance with workflows to facilitate this process, let us know.

Thanks, -krishnan

Hi Patrick,
I received the reply below from Autodesk  regarding exporting from Revit. I have not tried it and will leave it to others to comment on their level of success with the workflow.
I don't believe the feature for direct import from REVIT is a priority for the eQUEST development team.
Regards,
~Bill

Subject: [Equest-users] Revit importation

Hi everyone,

Is anyone aware of a way to import a 3D model from Revit directly into eQUEST?
I've been using version 3.64 of eQUEST and as far I as know, it's impossible in that version (aside from extracting 2D plans and importing them into eQUEST). I was wondering if a newer version of eQUEST could get the 3D job done with a straight importation from Revit (it would be a true blessing).
