<p class=MsoNormal>Hello eQuest Fellows,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m a new user of here, and I’m now trying to
model a 10-floor residential building that has no first floor. It has several
columns in the first floor in an open space (it is not a parking space also, it
is just a simple open space), and it provides a few elevators there for you get
to 2-10 floors. How do you think I should place my windows and doors? This
might be a basic question but my problem is I don’t know where to place
my doors. The doors for this building seem like to be the elevator , and it is “inside”
the building instead of being on any of the façades. It looks like this from a 2<sup>nd</sup>-floor
plan view:<o:p></o:p></p>
