Hi all, I'm doing some simulation on an apartment building. I've done my model in Sketchup - OS, I have modelled some canopies and balconies attached to the building. During some simulation the shading hasn't been applied resulting in some substantial overheat of some spaces. I've re-tested with a larger shading surface in front of the whole building that would block most of the direct sun-light and the simulation applied the shading. I've then removed the vertical surface and left only canopies and balconies and the shading started to work as it should.
Have you ever had some mis-behaving of the shading? What would be the best way to have OS using and allowing for the shading? Furthermore, I I hit ''Purge unused objects'' under Building/Shading, OS gets rid of all the shading surfaces. This is not something I would expect to happen since all the shading surfaces are part of Shading groups. cheers cheers
