DISPLAY SURFACE NORMALSWhen I was trying to d o the radiation o n fa ad es, I had som e issues be c ause o f the d irec tion of the surfac es,so I reversed the no rma ls just in the surfac es that I wa nted to c alc ulate.
SURFACE SUBDIVISION
In order to have a p roper faad e calculation, I subd ivide the m first.Using: Mo d ify/Surfac e subdivision/ Rec ta ng le tiles, and I offset them just a little b it.

SOLAR RADIATIONAfter reversing the normals, the faades were ready to calculate. I tried spe cified pe riod of time first but itwas taking too much time, so at the end I selected the current day choice. At step 6, under surface
sampling: Low 1pt and for sky subdivision: low 10x10, and checked use fast calculation method.

GRID SOLAR ANALYSISFirst display analysis grid/adjust grid to objects, choose around/selected objects/and OK. I was looking for acalculation around the block, so I went for adjust grid extents/manually adjust grid extents, and then I
choose a sma ll grid spa c ing.
Now, Ca lculate/ Solar a cc ess analysis/ Incide nt solar rad iation/c urrent d ay/ cumulative values/ Ana lysis grid(use full 3D extents for ana lysis grid)/ Perform d eta iled shading calc ulations, and then I choo se 1p t a nd 10x10.

SPACIAL VISIBILITY ANALYSIS
I ma de the g rid a little larger tha n the b uildings in it, using ad just g rid extents/ ma nually, and then to start the
visibility: first I selec ted the fa ad e or surfac e, Ca lculate/ Spa c ial visibility ana lysis/ selec ted ob jects and at thelast ste p full 3D analysis grid .
