Honeybee Schedules and Construction Libraries

Hello community,
It’s my first time using Honeybee Energy. I am moving from Climate Studio to this great open-source tool. But I’m encountering some limitations on its defaults in order to build up the model.

I would like to build my energy model without using ASHRAE library, construction sets, programs, and schedules. More specifically, using the European standards and some other wall assemblies. Is there any collection / library out there of construction sets, programs, schedules, etc that I can use for faster modelling?

You’ll have to be more specific about what standard you want to make defaults for. As I understand it, a lot of Europe uses the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) and you’ll see that the templates you have labeled as “ASHRAE” also correspond to versions of the IECC:

If you have a more localized and less international standard in mind, feel free to post it and maybe someone on the forum has worked on making constructions and objects for that standard.
