Hi again,

Were having trouble getting all our rooms to close in IES. I looked into the problematic rooms and found an issue in the way the model is translated by IES. IES represents the three dimensional walls in the Revit model with two dimensional planes. However, we found a problem with the way the program interprets the transition from a curtain wall to a concrete wall.  It seems to be defining these planes based on the outer edge of a wall, because in IES the plane representing the concrete wall was located further out than that representing the curtain wall, leaving a gap.  When we pushed the curtain wall out to the edge of the concrete wall temporarily in Revit, that solved the problem in IES. Does anyone know how to fix this problem while keeping the curtain wall where it should be? Again, I'll attach a pdf to show what I mean.

Thanks for any help!
