I just installed the latest OpenStudio 1.9 for Sketchup 2025 but cannot find 'Construction:AirBoundary' or 'AirWall' anywhere. Please tell me what I need to do.

The AirWallMaterial class is deprecated, removed back in 2022 (SDK 3.5.0 release).

Using the OpenStudio Application ("App"), go to the Constructions subtab (under the Constructions tab), and create a new Air Boundary Construction.

Go to the Surfaces subtab (under the "Spaces" tab), and drag-n-drop the new Air Boundary Construction to both paired interzone surfaces.

You can safely reopen the updated model using the SketchUp Plugin.
