Hello
Is it safe to assume that the metric dataset that was made available for the Beta version of AECOSIM can be used with the current version of AECOSIM. If not, is there any indication of a timeline when this will be available?
Indeed, .... I haven't used the new AECOSIM yet. One of the main reasons being that I'm waiting to see if the metric dataset has been improved and is indeed a 'real metric dataset' and not just the imperial one re-badged.
From what you could make out off the one with the Beta version, was this much different from the one in BA SS1?

Although I don't have a definitive timeframe, I believe the first three regional metric datasets - GB, ANZ and SG (Singapore) - should be available soon. The GB one in particular was revamped from the ground up based on the British Standard BS1192.

The first round of Ss5 metric datasets have been posted to SELECT Downloads:
Category: Enhancements and Updates
Product Line: Building Analysis and Design
Language: English
Date Range: Six Month
FWIW, regional datasets will always follow behind ABD itself, just as ABD follows behind the underlying platform product. Horse before the cart and all.
I am not talking about regional datasets, what I am talking about is the Dataset NM (Neutral Metric).
This one should have been delivered with the first WIP, so that we could begin testing.
Only then we could have a chance of finding metric related bugs, as mentioned here.
NM Dataset should be along soon, if I hear a date I'll post back here.

Thanks.
I see that it is mentioned in the sticky post abour regional workspaces now.
