ASHRAE90.1-2016, appendix-G, window U-value

Dear all, I have a question regarding how to generate the baseline window that required by ASHRAE90.1-2016 appendix-G.

The simple glazing method from Open Studio cannot give me a window with the U-value that in ASHRAE90.1 2016 appendix-G. I contacted the EnergyPlus help desk and have been told that it can be done by adding the frame.

Is there anyone please share a screenshot of the 2016 baseline model window's inputs (materials dataset and construction layer) for OpenStudio/EnergyPlus that you are using for climate zone 2?
