Partially insulated wall

Hi,

I'm modeling a warehouse with some interior office spaces in eQUEST for LEED certification; normally not a complicated task. However with this model, I need to add insulation to the concrete tilt-up walls, but only at 10 feet AFF and above. Is there a way to specify the height at which the insulation should start? Or do I need to calculate some kind of averaged R-value for the whole wall?

Any suggestions would be a real help.
