<p class="MsoNormal">Yep. Floor multipliers are a borderline essential tool to leverage for very large facilities and campus models covering multiple near-identical buildings/floors/systems. You can observe substantial gains on simulation/load time, which
can on occasion save you many hours of net development time (i.e. late hours when you should be resting up for your next analysis!!).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That said, I typically advise newer energy model practitioners to experiment with but not rely heavily on floor multipliers with their first (simpler) projects, as using floor/shell multipliers entails a number of minor quirks with regard
to defining systems and interpreting certain model output reports.<o:p></o:p></p>
