<p class=MsoNormal>Sim List,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> I
have a building with an underground space. I’m using eQUEST 3.62. I am
creating an AHSRAE 90.1 baseline building model. 90.1 requires a conductivity
of C-1.14 for underground walls in climate zone 4C. Even with bare concrete I
am unable to get the conductivity any higher than (0.847 Btu/h-SF-F).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> Does
anyone know how to make this work?<o:p></o:p></p>
