Hi,
We have completed the Energy Model for New Residential Building which will be located in India. As I said above, the whole Energy Modeling Process was completed and we are filling Energy Performance Calculator. In this calculator, we have the following doubts.
1. Opaque Assembly - We have calculated proposed U values for Wall, Roof and the same has been considered. From Energy Performance Calculator, we came to know that the proposed assembly has to consistent with Appendix A. How to check that the proposed Wall and Roof are inline with Appendix A.
2. While updating the info for Basement wall , how to calculate C FACTOR for proposed basement wall and How to check that the proposed Wall and Roof are inline with Appendix A.
3. While updating the info for Slab On Grade Floor, how to calculate F FACTOR for proposed basement wall and How to check that the proposed Wall and Roof are inline with Appendix A.
Kindly reply with examples for each points which asked above. Thanks

You need to find the correct section of Appendix A that applies to your project's construction assemblies and apply the guidance it contains. If you do not have a copy of 90.1 you need to get one and read Appendix A. It contains the answers to your questions.
