URGENT. Materials and Thermal energy

Hi everybody,

I'm doing a project about optimizing a house and I did some simulations in order to set the optimum glaze ratio and orientations of the house in rer to have the minumum energy consumption (heating+light). Now I was trying to see how the construction materials have influence on those outputs, and I was wondering what is the pre-set material of a Madrise Apartement Zone, because when I put some isolation materials as walls, then the heating consumption increases instead of decreasing. Here I upload the file.

I can't check your file now but you have a much better chance to get an answer if you send your question to Ladybug and Honeybee forum discussions (http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/ladybug/forum).

Hi Mostapha, do you know which is the construction material of the exterior and interior walls of the Apartement zone programm? How can I find this construction material and see its properties?

Thank you!
