Hello,

I created CONTAM model, extruded it using the export tool, then I made changes to the geometry (roofs, skylights, and shades) using the TRNSYS-SKETCHUP plugin. However, according to the CONTAM manual, for TRNSYS to use the modified IDF geometry I would need to edit/modify the TRNSYS .b18 file with new geometry by hand. The procedure seems very time consuming and error prone.

Is there an easier, more automated way to achieve this? 

Thanks,
-Rodrigo

Alas, there is currently no “more automated” way to do this.
