Double height exterior wall now reading as interior after doing some adjacency cleanup

[mostapha]

Hi @kevinhertig1,

This will not be a problem in IESVE. IESVE recalculates the boundary condition for each face once you import the GEM file.

See here for an explanation about why you see the top part showing as an interior wall, and the possible solutions to address it.

Hey @mostapha and @josiahfce , Sorry for the delayed response. I should first note that the wall boundary conditions for the case in your screenshot are resolved during the simplification that we do to the geometry for TRACE to accept it. So your model is perfectly fine as-is in TRACE even though it doesn’t look right in the 3D viewer. You can prove this to yourself you opening up your TRACEXML in the Spider gbXML viewer and you’ll see how the geometry becomes simplified to flat-topped extrusio…
