does not presently have this capability (the next version due to be released in
the coming weeks would be able to generate some Baseline base model, according to
one of the eQuest developers). You will have to create the Baseline by
yourself; however, usually, it does not take time, because eQuest has
everything you need to create very quickly a Baseline.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Actually
my concern is if E-Quest has any capability of automatically generate the
baseline building taking the information provided in the proposed model.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Recently
that strategy can be possible with HAP 4.5 and also the reports are generated
exactly as requested by USGBC, so you save time in creating the baseline
building, but I have some difficulties in generating certain models with HAP
(daylight, PV systems, etc.) so I would like to try with E-Quest.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>ASHRAE 90.1, Appendix G tells you WHAT to include in a
model (any model, eQuest, EnergyPlus, TRACE, etc). You will need to play with
eQuest to determine HOW it goes into this particular model.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>DO make two models, though. An "As Designed" model
with everything your building has in it. Then modify the Windows, walls, roof,
lighting LPD, HVAC EERs and HSPFs to come up with the Base model. Then compare
the two.<o:p></o:p></p>
