Spaces in ABS more in Depth

[nbakhoum]

I have been thinking about ABS capability to have a cooling and heating loads imbedded tool instead of using a third party as it is right now which I think most of the users are not happy about it

For instance, how can I assign R values for windows, glass and walls based on ASHRAE to windows, walls material properties in the material definitions

Also, if I specify the space name under space styles and under design rules which is listed under list definitions and if I go to Materials I can Specify the Material Definition but actually I do not see a relation between the List Definition and the Material Definition

The same thing when I go to classification tab under space style, the classification there does not add any value because when I check the classification definition I find it is just naming and does not have any air requirements as per ASHRAE

So, I can see that ABS has the basics that autodesk can build that third party tool over the existing bases

I wish that will happen in the future
