Is there a database or source for .osm files of prototype commercial buildings? (specially midrise to high rise apartments)

Appreciate the guidance.

Hi, thank you for pointing this out. Just to check does it export the HVAC systems as well? I will try it out nevertheless. Thanks again! :)

It will generate the HVAC system as well in the Prototype buildings.
