[happy]

Hi,
I'm new to IES.

kindly advise me on the followings:
- how to apply material properties to adjacent building?
- my window is 4 m high with 2 different material: from 0-750 mm is spandrel, 750-2800 mm is vision glass, 2800-4000 mm is spandrel.how to apply this 2 different materials?

Thank you so much

Hi Huntervu,

Thank you for the reply.
Is there anyway to apply materials properties to adjacent buildings?

thanks

The adjacent building doesn't have thermal properties like a heated space so you can't assign constructions to this. The adjacency between a heated space and a space defined adjacent building will be adiabatic I believe.

So adjacent buildings or local shades won't transmit radiation, nor reflected solar irradiation?
