<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> Re: [Equest-users] Compliance
rule set for Oregon</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>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>-

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
