Revision history [back]

Hello everyone. I am working in OpenStudio in a model which geometry I brought from Revit using gbXML. However, I don’t want to use the construction components from Revit, since I have all of them created in OS. I have created a construction set, a space, and a schedule set in OS. I placed all of them in the “facility” tab. However, if I go to the “spaces” tab, under “surfaces” or sub-surfaces” tab, I find that all the surfaces or sub-surfaces’ construction components of the spaces have the constructions brought from Revit. To change it, I deleted the current constructions from the surface, and it allows to see the default constructions in green color from the construction set. However, because there are hundreds of surfaces and sub-surfaces, this manual deleting takes time. I also place the construction set in every space in the default construction set in the “properties” tab of the “spaces” tab, but when I go again to the “surface” and “sub-surface” tab, the construction components from the gbXML are still there.
I wonder if there is a direct method to not have in account the construction components from the gbXML file or to delete them inside OS without having to do in every surface and subsurface. I would be grateful if someone could help me.
