Building Performance Analysis and Energy Modelling
Now, due to worries about energy and climate change, there’s a push for eco-friendly designs. A building’s energy efficiency and carbon footprint depend on various factors like its layout, location, and the materials used.
Meeting high-performance standards, like BCA Green Mark Gold+ and Platinum, is tough with traditional design methods. It’s a challenge to balance all these factors for a sustainable and efficient building.
Analyzing building performance is crucial for architects and engineers. Using Building Energy modelling helps them see how a design affects overall performance. They compare it to a standard to figure out potential energy savings. Designers now know that an integrated approach is vital for energy goals. Early on, Building Energy modelling helps them see the impact of design choices. It lets designers balance options to meet goals within the budget and timeline.
