<font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">If you want to model this accurately, you can edit the polygon in detail mode. But it will spend a lot of time to do such things, obviously. You should consider that how much it means for accurately model the geo, the geo is much more important then the HVAC system setting or schedule, etc.</font><div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear
all,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What
is the best method for modeling a theater? You know that the level and
the volume will change. Can we do that in eQUEST ? or we should assume the
elevation is constant? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I
think that if we calculate the actual zone volume , and then adjust the
elevation in eQUEST to get the same volume (so the elevation in eQUEST will
represent a virtual elevation). Is that a good approach? </p>
