Tutorial for WinDesign

This step-by-step tutorial guides you through the program WinDesign. It will help you to understand how the program works and therefore be as a help while working with Part 3 in Assignment 1 in course 11116 Sustainable buildings. Two examples of how to use the program will be given in this tutorial. The first example is related to the optimization of the selection of windows for a classroom, whereas the second example considers the renovation of an existing single-family house.In PowerPoint open ‘View Notepage’ to view the slides with notes in A4 format or simply view the notes in the note editor. Use the ‘Outline’ menu to be able to navigate in the step-by-step tutorial.
