work, but if you have a lot of spaces it could become tedious having to go
through the construction of each one individually.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

One way is to make the zoning on the first floor line up with the second floor
foot print. This I think, is the best way if the second floor is a
complex shape. The addition of a roof or it's deletion can be
geometrically tricky to do if it spans only part of a zone. I have found
lining up the zones with the foot print an easier solution. You may have
to add a few extra zones to get the matching shape. You delete the roof
under the foot print. If the zoning doesn't match your HVAC zones you can
adjust the zone grouping so that it does.</span> <span style='font-size:
13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Turn any interior walls into air
walls if they don't actually exist on the first floor. You may also have
to adjust or delete the floor of the second story as the ceiling of the first
floor is floor of the second floor. Check through your layers to make
sure they are consistent with the actual construction. Make sure your
boundaries are referencing the proper adjacent zones. This is the
technique, and may not exactly match what you are doing, you will have to check
through everything to make sure everything is consistent.<br>

floor. Parameters of the roof of 1st story and the floor of the 2nd story are
different! During the calculation the eQUEST will calculate Heat Flux through
the ceiling/floor. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
