Hello everyone. I'm a newbie for OpenStudio. I'm working on a vineyard project that I created as my school project which mean it has not any default library in it or any location. I have created geometry. I produced materials that i have used for slabs, exterior walls and roofs so far. My question is how to organise construction sets in construction section for each material i have produced. I mean I created separate construction sets for each room because the flooring materials in my Ground Floor are different. For example, the kitchen and the living room have different slab/floor constructions.However, when I create a single “Ground Floor Construction Set,” I see that I can only assign one floor construction in the set. This made me confused, because I need multiple floor constructions within the same story. So my question is: How can I assign different floor (slab) constructions to different rooms on the same floor, if the construction set only allows one default floor construction? I want to understand the correct workflow. Should I use construction sets only as defaults and override the constructions at the surface level? Or is there another recommended method?
