would model this as a roof parapet (wall extending above roof height). You could
change the construction type of the mansard section of the walls if they have
different thermal characteristics. It is an energy model, not an architectural
model, and the very slight tilt of the decorative wall is probably not
significant from an energy point of view.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

All,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">The 3-story
building I am modeling has a flat roof with a decorative mansard roof extending
above the flat roof by about 4’ and going down to the bottom of the top floor.
In addition, there is a porch wrapping around the East & South side of the
building with an overhang which is attached to the
building.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Can anyone shed
some light on how I can incorporate these elements into my model? An overhang
won’t work because they are not based off windows, and in the case of the
mansard, roof surround the top floor windows.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
