<span style='font-family:Verdana'><span style='font-size:12px'>Thank you for your help.<br />
I can not buy any of your model right now since I'm still in internship :)<br />
But I'll remember that.<br />
<br />
Do you know any way to do that approximately and free ?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

We sell several ground coupling models in our TESS Libraries that were created to do exactly as you suggest. Refer to the TRNSYS website for more information on these models (<a href="www.trnsys.com" target="_blank">www.trnsys.com</a>). As you point out, the ground coupling in standard TRNSYS is designed for slab on grade construction.<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Hi,<br />
<br />
For the first time I am modeling a building with two underground levels.<br />
So, I am wondering how I can model the surrounding soil, and even the ground floor, since it is not at the "altitude 0" like usually in the Trnsys Soil Noding plugin.<br />
<br />
Do you have any feedback on that kind of models ?<br />
Maybe the </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Soil Noding plugin is too unadapted for that purpose ?<br />
<br />
I guess I can choose a constant boundary condition for the floor, which is about 6 m deep, but as for the vertical walls, I am more dubious about approximations... </span></span><br />
<br />
Thanks for sharing your experience,<br />
Damien</span></span><br />
