Can't Create Any Energy Analysis Surfaces
Error: Can t create any energy analysis surfaces. There are no room bounding elements defined in the current
phase. Please check the Project Information settings.
Issue: This warning displays when you attempt to export to gbXML and the building model does not contain
any room-bounding elements in the specified phase.
Solution: Do the following:
Make sure that appropriate elements (such as walls and roofs) in the building model are room-bounding.
See
Making an Element Room Bounding
Click Settings menu
Edit. In the Energy Data Type Properties dialog, for Project Phase, specify the phase for which you want
to perform the energy analysis. This phase should be one in which room-bounding elements exist.
Energy Analysis Model Does Not Contain Any Roof Surfaces
Warning: The energy analysis model does not contain any roof surfaces. If there are roofs in your model,
please verify that they are room bounding, and make sure that the room offsets are high enough to include
the roofs.
Issue: This warning displays when you attempt to export to gbXML, and rooms in the building model do
not include upper surfaces (roofs).
Solution: Do the following:
Make sure that the roofs in the building model are room-bounding. See
Bounding
Where appropriate, adjust the upper boundaries of rooms to include the roofs. See
on page 930 and
Highlighted Room Separation Lines Overlap
Warning: Highlighted room separation lines overlap. One of them may be ignored when Revit finds room
boundaries. Delete one of the lines.
Issue: The room separation line that you just added or moved overlaps an existing separation line.
Solution: Select one of the room separation lines, and delete it, move it, or change its length, so that it no
longer overlaps the other line.
See
Room Separation Lines
Multiple Rooms Are in the Same Enclosed Region
Warning: Multiple rooms are in the same enclosed region. The correct area and perimeter will be assigned
to one room, and the others will display "Redundant Room." You should separate the regions, delete the
extra rooms, or move them into different regions.
Issue: This message displays when multiple rooms reside in the same region of the building model. In
schedules, Revit Architecture displays Redundant Room.
