To All,

I have a big problem. I forgot to add my computer room and Elevator
equipment room. Can I put a space within a space? Otherwise I have to
rebuild my whole model and I just got it working. HELP!!!!!!!!

Thanks,

You can create a dummy space in the detailed edit mode that have no walls, but just equipment loads. I do this sometime for server rooms.

I normally model my elevator machinery as a direct load on the meter since the room is not normally connected to HVAC equipment or normally occupied.

Vikram,

Thanks. Where does the dummy space go? Does it matter? The problem with my
elevator room and computer room is they have an AHU (Air Handling Unit)
attached to them. Can I just draw the space in another space and it not
affect the model or should I draw it on the outside of the shell?

Thanks,
