While OS imports gbXML files it creates 2 surfaces: an original from gbXML with assigned construction, and a reversed one as Energy Plus requires. To that reversed surface OS doesn't assign any construction, why? OS 2.3

While OS imports gbXML files it creates 2 surfaces: an original from gbXML with assigned construction, and a reversed one as Energy Plus requires. To that reversed surface OS doesn't assign any construction, why? OS 2.32.3 So, here is the test file. 1. OS does not recognize underground walls. 2. In SketchUp there are no constrictions assigned to generated reversed surfaces:

1. Some of surfaces have constructions with unreadable names:

2. In OS application horizontal surfaces are recognized incorrectly:

As you see, it doesn't assign all of them to floors or to ceilings, but do it randomly, so it is impossible to automate reassignment. 5. As a consequence, constructions for horizontal surfaces are also wrong:

1. And the last but not least - adjacent spaces. Again, constructions to SOME reversed surfaces are not assigned:

2. But if you check the same construction in its space, you'll see assigned construction in green and it is wrong:

Last time when we discussed here the problem with gbXML import, there was an opinion, that the file itself was exported incorrectly from Revit. But as I see now, the problem is actually in OS. @Macumber, please respond to this post, as I remember OS announced a kind of certification in working with gbXML, may be I do smthg wrong..?
