Is it possible to create ventilated walls and roofs in OpenStudio? I looked for them in the BCL library but didn't find anything.

As far as I know the only way is to use "External natural vented cavity" objects You need to modify the idf file manually (or perhaps if you are able to produce a measure to do it)

Always good to quote specific objects and provide a link to the documentation. Here's the doc for SurfaceProperty:ExteriorNaturalVentedCavity
