Exporting to IES, roof overhangs

I'm trying to export the building I've created in Revit MEP into IES but the overhangs on the roof seem to be ignored.

Please see attached file. The original building has a 2m overhang right around and shows up fine in Revit. Without this overhang there is obviously a massive difference in heating and cooling calculations.

Is it possible to import the roof as well?

Cheers,

Chris

Two immediate ideas here:

* Are the Roof Elements set to be Room Bounding? Check for this in the Element Properties dialog for the Roof Elements in question.

* Are you outputting Shading Surfaces from your model? Check for this in Settings -> Project Information -> Shading Surfaces.

Hope that helps,
