Class Method Summary collapse

Class Method Details

.create_default_construction_set(model, name, exterior_construction_set, interior_construction_set, ground_construction_set, subsurface_exterior_construction_set, subsurface_interior_construction_set) ⇒ Object

This method creates a default construction set. A construction set for exterior, interior,ground and subsurface must be created prior to populate this object.

Parameters:

  • model (OpenStudio::Model::Model)
  • name (String)
  • exterior_construction_set
  • interior_construction_set
  • ground_construction_set
  • subsurface_exterior_construction_set
  • subsurface_interior_construction_set

Returns:

  • (Object) —

    set
