hi all...this is mahdi soheili fard...i came to ask your experiences of analyzing time with ecotect,...cpu usage and Ecotect consideration for speed it up...not like me , waited 8 hours for a 3-Analysis Grid , not in a high length or very complexity project...
thanks,
i attached one , for example
please send me your experiments...
There is one thing you can do to reduce the proccessing time.
go to calculate menu and choose interzonal adjacencies.
click on the Next 3times until you get this question " How to calculate object Overshadowing?"
by disabling this option the proccess speed increases significantly. simply choose do not calculate shading mask and click next and finally click ok.
you'd better disable this option if you only wanna have a ballpark figure of energy consumtion.
