How to model a Radiant Barrier in BeOpt

asked 2023-10-10 13:46:46 -0500

Not sure if it is possible with BeOpt 2.8 but I am modeling a building that is designed with a radiant barrier. I cannot find a way in the options of BeOpt to get this done. Does anyone have a clue on how to achieve this? Thanks in advance.

When you draw a building with Unfinished Attic space, a Radiant Barrier category will appear where you can select whether it's present or not.

Thank you! Is there a way to add a radiant barrier for a flat roof by chance?

Unfortunately not.
