Addressing overheating due to solar gain is increasingly a big problem for building designers, and is now also a statutory requirement. OBD/OBES/Hevacomp is well placed to provide an analytical design tool that provides quick feedback to the facad...

This would make using generic components in Government designs easier to get to.

When exporting IFC and when working with projects that contain multiple buildings, there is no single way to assign the reference files to a single building. Every reference within the file path has to be selected seperately to assign the building...
