Manual J [HVAC calc]

Anonymous — Thu, 16 May 2019 22:31:04 GMT

Is there some software which Integrates with ArchiCAD or something which can help us do Manual J for HVAC?

I mean, a Manual J should be able to extract all needed information out from the model?

It sure seems possible, and such an obvious need.
What you can to is make a set of interactive schedules for reporting the input data in the same order you need it for filling out your Manual J, Manual D, Manual S, or ResCheck, Comcheck, apps.

Or for $79 you can have someone do it for your.

I doubt it. They probably just use a .pdf. ? I use ResCheck from time to time and I have interactive schedules that report the data I need to fill out that app - in the same order as the app - so it is very quick to enter the numbers.
