<div>Hi,</div><div><br></div>The building i am modeling has steel frame floor which separates the conditioned space from unconditioned basement. There are hot water tubes running underneath between the steel joists for radiant heating. There is no use of insulation except for v thin aluminium foil below radiant tubes which is fixed to the steel joists using magnets. This foil helps with high reflectivity and low thermal absorption prevents heat transfer to the unconditioned basement.<div>
<br></div><div>Can somebody give me ideas how to model this ? I am using eQUEST </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Shubha Mohunta, LEED Green Assoc. </div><div>M.S. Sustainable Design</div>
