Used to select constructions from the conceptual
modeling constructions catalog to apply to the ASM.
When on (default), the
Conceptual Constructions table is enabled,
and the
Building Constructions table is disabled.

Opens the
Materials Manager.

Conceptual Constructions
|
When on, the constructions used to develop the
conceptual ASM can be used for the fully promoted ASM.
- Surface
Type - Lists available conceptual surface types.
- Construction -
Used to select available material constructions from a catalog of available
material constructions.

Building Constructions
|
Building material constructions are mapped from the
AECOsim Building Designer Part assignment's
analytical materials properties.
- Part
Name - Displays
AECOsim Building Designer Part
definitions to be mapped to
Energy Simulator material construction
definitions. table rows are grouped by surface type (Exposed wall, Partition,
Door, etc).
-
Thickness - Displays the thickness
specified in the
AECOsim Building Designer Part
definition. This is used as e reference when mapping to an equivalent
Energy Simulator material construction.
-
Material - Displays mapped material
types. Initially, the mappings are highlighted green indicating you can review
the mapped type. Clicking in the cell opens a drop down menu listing available
material types. The highlighting is turned off after you review the mapping.
-
Construction - Displays mapped
constructions. Unmapped constructions are highlighted red indicating you must
select a construction to map to. Clicking in the cell opens a drop down menu
listing a filtered list of constructions. The highlighting is turned off after
you map the construction.
Note: Selections
made in the
Material column determine the
available constructions.
- - Click to automatically select a construction based
on the other selections made in the mapping table.
