Badreddine Dalal,
   The definition of a Type56/TRNBuild "orientation" is a surface that 
has a unique amount of solar radiation falling on it. Before there was 
Trnsys3D it was not uncommon for me to deal with buildings that had 
multiple hundreds of orientations, many of them facing the same basic 
direction. If you have drawn your building using Trnsys3D then the basic 
orientations have been set for you and if you generate a shading mask 
from TRNBuild then the building shape and any shading objects that you 
have drawn in Trnsys3D will be taken into account automatically.
   If you want instead to use Type34 then you will need to define 
additional orientations in TRNBuild and assign them to the appropriate 
surfaces in the building.
kind regards,
  David
