Hi Jean, welcome to TRNSYS! I did one LEED project in TRNSYS, but unfortunately I couldn't dig up the constructions files. But it's fairly easy to put together a few centimeters of concrete then add and adjust a massless insulation layer to match the U-value required. This is what I do to get a first approximation. As far as I know, ASHRAE doesn't specify actually constructions for baseline - like what the exact mass should be, except that it should be "light weight".

Sorry I can't be of more help, but let me know if there's anything else.

Marcus

Hello group, being a new user and trying to learn trnsys on a live project, I would love if someone could save me some time by donating me their user defined libraries regarding building envelope properties of the constructions as defined in ASHRAE 90.1. This is typically used in a "baseline" building for the building energy simulation required by the LEED certification system.
Kind regards
Jean Marais
