Thanks for providing all the details and clarfication about the slab preprocessor. I was wondering if you could please help me with the following relevant question. I am trying to add the Site:GroundTemperature:FCfactorMethod object to my IDF. In order to get the 12 required monthly fields for that object, I ran the slab preprocessor program (using EP-Lunch Utilities and the example file that existed in the EnergyPlus directory: PreProcess\GrndTempCalc). Running that IDF, generates another file, that is called _slab.gtp. That file includes four monthly tempretaures, including Taverage, Tperimeter, Tcore, and Tinside. I guess the Taverage would be the correct choice to fill the Site:GroundTemperature:FCfactorMethod fileds. Could you please confirm if this approach looks correct. If not, what would be the alternative solution to generate that object.

Thanks so much in advance.
