To run an ASHRAE 90.1 prescriptive calculation and view a Summary of the results

  1. Select the icon for one of the ASHRAE 90.1 calculations (Ribbon: Energy Simulator > Calculations > Prescriptive Calculations).

    The calculation settings dialog opens displaying the message Initializing calculation. When the calculation is complete, the dialog displays prescriptive results on several dialog tabs. By default the dialog opens with the Summary tab selected.

  2. Review the summary results report which displays compliance results for each of the major requirements of the Standard, and an overall compliance result.
