<p class="MsoNormal">Hi John,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There isn’t a 1-click step for building rotations, but it’s relatively simple with a framework like this. You want to use parametric runs to adjust the AZIMUTH property for each of your floors. If from wizards development you haven’t
messed with or provided manual rotation inputs to any of the shell/space/geometry defaults for azimuth, everything should rotate together based on this input alone:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><img width="996" height="574" style="width:10.375in;height:5.9791in" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image007.png@01D44C16.A8C0B4E0"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The above illustrates how I’d prefer to document/structure a building where “Plan North” starts at 110 degrees from true North, as you prompted. Note the final input for AZIMUTH will throw an error if the value is either >360 or <-360,
so if your baseline is 110 we can’t add 270 for the final rotation but must instead turn the other direction (-90)…
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Does this answer the question?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="yiv7980089438msonormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">You can think of RECs as the added value of renewable electricity versus fossil-fuel generated electricity. Solar power is awesome! Coal-fired power is still pretty

<p class="yiv7980089438msonormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">What if you want to buy all the awesome, including the electricity itself? You buy Green power/energy. You purchase green power through an electric utility (or an energy
supplier, depending on how the electricity market is regulated where you live). You pay for the same electricity that was going to come in through your electric service no matter who you bought it from or how much you paid for it. But you also pay for the
added value of an equivalent amount of renewable energy that was generated somewhere else. Buying green power is basically buying dirty power + RECs.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#26282A"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
