[Equest-users] Double Facade wall modeling strategies

[Lapierre, Patrick via Equest-users]

Hi Pasha,

I’ve completed one project that used a double facade wall.
The strategy used was to model a thin zone alongside all the perimeter of the building, something like 2 ft wide. Then I modeled windows in the internal wall between the “facade zone” and the “interior zone” and modeled the “facade zone” as a sunspace.

Results were making sense but it was a pain to model the reference building since the zoning had to be done anew.

Hope that helps you.

Objet : [Equest-users] Double Facade wall modeling strategies

Hi all-- does anyone have a successful example or strategy to model a double facade in eQuest?

At this point I am open to any ideas and tips.  Everything I have tried thus far is not yielding anything useful to the model.

Thanks,
Pasha
