Correction on Carol's response -<br>
There is no "compliance analysis" ruleset for either Oregon or
90.1-2004. What Carol was referring to in eQUEST v3.63 (and later) is
a jurisdiction-based defaulting mechanism within the building creation
wizard(s) that includes Oregon-specific selections and defaults (which
are based on the Oregon energy code).<br>
<br>
Compliance Analysis is quite a different feature. The CA Title-24
compliance analysis feature enables users to press the compliance
analysis button in the interface (the button Curt pressed which
resulted in the message he circulated) to initiate a mechanism that
performs a complete, performance-based compliance analysis on the
proposed building design loaded into eQUEST.<br>
Two additional features are on the near horizon with regards to
compliance analysis in eQUEST -<br>
(1) a LEED baseline generation ruleset which does not perform a
complete LEED analysis but does generate a LEED (90.1-2007 Appendix-G)
baseline model based on a user's proposed design. This is included in
v3.64 which should be made available in the coming weeks (pending CEC
certification).<br>
(2) compliance analysis based on Canada's MNECB ruleset - to be
included in a Canadian derivative of eQUEST, called CAN-QUEST. Not
sure of the exact release date for CAN-QUEST, but I can tell you that
users are training on it today @ the eSIM conference in Winnipeg.<br>
<br>
There is nothing in the works to my knowledge in terms of developing a
compliance analysis capability for Oregon.<br>

<br>
The Oregon rule set is in VS 3.63. I helped Scott put it there. When
you select your city in Oregon you will see the Oregon rules. In your
email you say 90.1-2004. The Oregon compliance rule set is probably
2004 I just don't have time to confirm for sure.<br>
<br>
Good Luck, <br>

Need help.<br>
Is there an ASHRAE 90.1-2004 rule set file that can be downloaded and

for compliance<br>
