Loads Summary Report

The Loads report (under Reports in the left sidebar) shows the results of HVAKR’s load calculations. Instead of one flat table, the report is scope-driven: you pick a scope in the sidebar tree, and the pane shows the cooling and heating results for that scope.

Choosing a Scope

A tree sidebar on the right drives the whole report. It is a single hierarchy — Project → System → Zone → Space — sorted alphabetically at each level. Expand a system to see its zones, expand a zone to see its spaces, and click any node to make it the active scope. Clicking Project returns to the whole-building view.

The pane header shows the current scope: Project Totals for the project, or the system, zone, or space name when one is selected. Everything below the header reflects that scope only — there are no filter or sort controls, and no space-by-space table.

If the project has no building model yet, the sidebar shows a No Building Model prompt with a Go to Spaces button.

Tables and Chart Views

At the top of the pane, a two-option toggle switches between the Tables view (the default) and the Chart view. An information card sits above both views and summarizes the scope:

• Floor Area
• Number of Systems, Number of Zones, Number of Spaces — shown for the scopes they apply to
• Space Type — for a single space
• Cooling Peak Time and Heating Peak Time (heating is always Winter Design)
• Cooling Source and Heating Source — the coil types configured for a zone or system

Tables View

The Tables view stacks cooling cards, then heating cards.

Cooling Sums at Peak

A Cooling Sums at Peak card shows the space sensible breakdown alongside System Sensible & Latent Components, followed by a Checksums card for the scope. The space sensible breakdown is grouped into totals:

• Internal Total — People Sensible, Lighting, Equipment, Miscellaneous Sensible
• External Total — Wall, Window, Door, Roof, Skylight, Slab
• Infiltration Sensible Total — Door, Window, and General Infiltration Sensible

Latent and ventilation loads (People Latent, Ventilation Sensible/Latent, and the infiltration latent lines) appear in the System Sensible & Latent Components table, not in the space sensible breakdown.

Scope Data

Below the sums, a data card shows results for the active scope:

• Project Cooling Data — for the project scope
• Space Cooling Data — for a single space
• Central … Data / Terminal … Data — for a system or zone, one card per equipment mode, each titled with the mode name (for example, Central Cooling Data)

Heating

The Heating Sums at Peak card mirrors the cooling layout — space sensible breakdown, System Sensible Components, and a Checksums card — followed by the matching Project Heating Data, Space Heating Data, or per-mode Central … Data / Terminal … Data card.

Chart View

The Chart view shows a Cooling Loads Profile — an hourly load curve for the peak month, with a 2D / 3D toggle. For a zone or system scope, a Peak Coincidence card below it scatters each child zone or space by the month and hour of its cooling peak, so you can see how peaks spread across the scope.

Exporting

The pane header has an Export Loads button. It opens Reports > Exports with the Create Export dialog set to the Loads Report (PDF). A caret menu beside it offers the CSV exports — Loads Report CSV and Time Series Loads CSV. Each choice takes you to the export dialog, where you set the options and scope. See PDF Export for the export types, options, and scope controls.

Verification Checklist

Use the Loads report to sanity-check a design before exporting:

1. Peak times look right — west-facing zones peak in the afternoon, east-facing in the morning
2. Components balance — envelope and solar dominate the perimeter, internal loads dominate the core
3. Ventilation is present — every zone and system shows outdoor air, meeting ASHRAE 62.1
4. Sources are set — the Cooling Source and Heating Source fields reflect the coils you configured
