Revision history [back]

Hi, everyone. I am importing a gbXML file from Revit to OpenStudio. The model is a simple one with 1 floor, 4 exterior walls, 1 roof and few windows and 1 exterior door. The model has an interior wall which divides it in 2 spaces. In Revit, I converted this model into gbXML using "room/space volumes" and before exporting it I had a look in the "Export gbXML - settings" and I could see all the "analythical surfaces" included the 2 floor surfaces. However, when I imported the model in OS, I had a look in the 3D viewer and I realized that the 2 floor surfaces didn't appear. Then, I set up the parameters to the model in OS, and I run the simulation but it fails. It says that no floor exist and all the value per floor area are zero. I would be grateful if someone could help to bring the gbXML model to OS complete. Thank you.
