Hello, it'd be helpful if you could copy paste the entire error log you're getting.

It looks like the intersect method in OpenStudio hitting a bug.

[BUG] Segmentation fault

If you send your OSM file to OpenStudio@NREL.gov we can try to figure out what is happening.

@macumber, any ideas.

I am using OpenStudio 1.11.0 Build Number: 4313b0e0d9.

In this model, a ‘subsurface’ was surrounded by a single larger surface by more than two edges. After I divided this surface in two and re used the surface matching in OpenStudio encountered no error and surface matching was successful.

@Morteza, there is an existing issue related to the OpenStudio intersect method. You seem to be hitting that. I was able to reproduce it with the model you sent, but I was also able to get it to run without hitting this error. I didn't do anything different one time vs. another. I'll email that file back to you. It is a 1.11.3 file vs. 1.11.0. Space 101 needs some minor repair, you need to re-draw an edge in SketchUp to crease surfaces to close to holes in the exterior roof surfaces, small glitch in the intersect.

@David Goldwasser, Thank you very much for your help, I used OpenStudio 1.11.3 with new intersect measure, and did not encounter any error.
