10 Tagging Constructions within Revit

You can create or tag constructions within Revit so that they already set up when imported into the VE.  The constructions can be defined by their name/type only with the thermal properties left at default and edited easily on a globally scale within the VE.  Once the constructions within the Revit model are created follow the steps below to achieve this.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
        Go to ‘Analyze’ Tab > Energy Analysis                                   
        Click ‘Energy Settings’                                                        
        Select Advanced >  Other Options
        In the Material Thermal Properties Tick Detailed Elements
        Then go to File > Export gbXML
        Select ‘Use Room/Space Volumes
 
 
        Make sure Export Default Values is ticked
        Open up Building Constructions
        Once in Building Constructions make sure the Override is Ticked for all constructions 
With the options above set constructions specified in the Revit model will transfer across to the VE analytical model.
