<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">If you are in the detailed mode save a copy of the file and revert it back to the wizard mode, save a copy of your original file in a separate folder so if all goes to heck you can revert back to it.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Go to Wizard screen 5 and select the "slab penetrates wall plane", select insulation properties as well.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Select finish then let the model compile.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Now you should see in the 3-D view an additional band on the exterior walls that indicates the point where the slab balcony penetrates the wall plane.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Copy all additional slabs, and constructions and insert into another copy of your original detailed model through direct editing the .inp files. You will need to manually edit the .inp file copying the data from
your wizard model to the detailed edit model. I recommend using notepad++ for editing the files.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Adjust the slab band for the proper width of the balcony in the detailed edit mode. This should take care of the thermal properties of the balcony.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You can use a building shade to model the shading provided by the balcony.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
