Template construction error

I used the template generator to import 90.1 2010 /2007 construction set for weather zone 3. However, the severe errors show as follows. Any reasons why the template construction is wrong ?

   ** Severe  ** Out of range value Numeric Field#4 (Specific Heat), value=0.23885, range={>=100}, in MATERIAL=CEMENT BONDED PARTICLE BOARD
 ** Severe  ** Out of range value Numeric Field#4 (Specific Heat), value=0.38215, range={>=100}, in MATERIAL=CHIPBOARD FLOORING
** Severe  ** Out of range value Numeric Field#4 (Specific Heat), value=0.23885, range={>=100}, in MATERIAL=CONCRETE DECK
   ** Severe  ** Out of range value Numeric Field#4 (Specific Heat), value=0.24601, range={>=100}, in MATERIAL=INSULATION
