Energy Analysis Model Does Not Contain Any Roof Surfaces

Warning: The energy analysis model does not contain any roof surfaces. If there are roofs in your model, please verify that they are room bounding, and make sure that the room offsets are high enough to include the roofs.

Issue: This warning displays when you attempt to export to gbXML, and rooms in the building model do not include upper surfaces (roofs).

Solution: Do the following:

• Make sure that the roofs in the building model are room-bounding. See Making an Element Room Bounding.
• Where appropriate, adjust the upper boundaries of rooms to include the roofs. See Defining Room Height and Considering Ceilings and Floors in Room Volume Computations.
