<p>I would think so, yes. Keep an eye on the wall, floor, roof, and ceiling areas in TRNBuild. If any of them look abnormally large or small then that would be a red flag.

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Thank you very much for your suggestion. I followed your instructions to export the .idf file from TRNBuild. After that, I opened the new .idf file in SketchUp. The building was not distorted. This situation leads me to believe that there
might be a problem with the interaction between TRNViewBUI and the .idf file. Is it possible to say it is safe to use the .idf file for further simulation studies?</p>

<p>Cem,</p>
<p> I have not run into this kind of problem before. However, the *.idf looks fine. One thing you might try is to open the *.b18 file in TRNBuild and select "export Trnsys3D file..." from the File menu. That will create a new *.idf file based on the geometry
that TRNBuild understands. The distorted view looks as though one of the wall vertices might have gotten written incorrectly. Once the new *.idf is created open it in SketchUp; if the building is distorted then try reimporting the original *.idf (the one you
attached) into TRNBuild.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>
