How to define basement walls in HAP(Hourly Analysis Program)?
I know how to input data for space above ground, but how to do it for basement walls?

But i will use winter heating in the basement. Then how to do it?
Can i define basement floor ? I found this. But i need to know which slab is slab-on-grade, which slab is slab-below-grade. How to differentiate them?

_______________________________________ Ground Level
| Basement 1 |
|________________| <---- What is this slab floor called?
| Basement 2 |
|________________| <---- This is slab-on-grade or -below-?

Besides, I'm trying to find the Carrier Handbook. Thanks!
Please give me more hint.
RE: HAP: basement wall input
Basement 1 - shares a common floor / ceiling with Basement 2 and common floor / ceiling with Ground level.
I would treat Basement 1 floor and ceilings as partions, in fact i would treat all walls this way too, just choosing for floor tab (above conditioned space).
Basement 2 - shares a common floor / ceilgin with Basement 1 but has a slab below grade.
I would treat all the walls and the ceiling to basement 2 as partitions and enter the slab below grade details for this level into the floor tab.
One way of dealing with your dilemma..
