I have been using other building modelling software that make use of the standard NCM Construction Databases for library / inference.
Are there any plans for the NCM Construction Databases to be added to the Hevacomp Materials & Glazing Database?
Hi Brian,
Hevacomp automatically references the NCM databases where needed - for example room activity types as detailed here. I am not aware of any such plans at the moment to display the constructions but I will investigate for you.

Many thanks for the suggestion, I will be logging it with our development team. If you need to add any particular NCM constructions I can only recommend entering the Thermal properties manually, by ticking the below option:
Hi Shane,
Thank you for coming back to me.
It would be hugely time-saving if NCM materials and glazing databases were added to Hevacomp DDB
I’ve been doing exactly as you’ve recommended, but this adds time having to check the NCM databases first for each construction type.
I also waste valuable time creating the correct glazing types – The NCM glazing database would be a very welcome addition.
Regards
Brian
