<p class=MsoNormal>You can generate a LEED Appendix G baseline model using the
new LEED analysis feature in eQUEST, but to do so for existing models requires
the specification of a variety of LEED AppG-related inputs throughout your
model.<br>
We recommend you read through the LEED tutorial - available from the main menu
in eQUEST: Help / Tutorials and Reference / LEED Analysis.<br>
