<p class=MsoNormal>Need help regarding LEED 2009 CI project. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Our project scope is just a single office floor in a 35
story high rise building in new York city. Now for simulation using EQUEST do
we need to perform simulation for the entire building or just that one floor
that is related to our scope of work in order to gain credits for Energy
Atmosphere.<o:p></o:p></p>
