[esp-r] Re: question about building an overhang

[Jon Hand]

There have been several people who have been asking about how to setup
solar obstruction in ESP-r.  The best response would be to create a short
screen tutorial.  But since that is not yet available try the following:

Please look in the project manager
  browse/edit/simulate -> zone composition -> geometry & attribution ->
    (pick a zone) -> solar obstruction -> dimensional input

And in that menu you can define one or more blocks which can be used
to obstruct direct solar radiation for this zone.  There are help messages
in the interface.

Subject: question about building an overhang

Hello Jon,
Sorry to disturb you again with another thing. I'm new in ESP-r, I'd like to build a window with an overhang.
I think, it can be constructed from obstruction blocks. But when, I see the example Simple (f)
(building with overhang), it gives No.obstr blocks = 0 and I don't see w_obs or s_obs on the surface list either, why?
I can see number of blocks on the example Simple (c).
Thank you very much for the info.

cheers,
Adhi
