Building Information

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has become an emerging digital technology in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry. There is a growing demand on applying BIM for sustainable design including the building energy simulation (BES). Lack of sufficient interoperability has caused barriers to utilize the information from BIM for BES. In this study, the interoperability between BIM and four different BES tools (i.e., Ecotect, EQUEST, Design Builder and IES-VE) was explored by using a case study of a residential building in the design stage. The misrepresented information from BIM to multiple BES tools were identified based on six different categories of building information parameters. The research proposed an approach of creating gbXML file with an improved integrity of information in BIM. Overall, this study would lead to further work in developing platforms for improving the information transformation from BIM to BES.

Simulation Process

This research introduced and implemented building energy simulation via a case study of a commercial project in China, by considering the green features which can reduce the annual energy consumption of this building. This simulation process was based on the requirement described within LEED EA c1 Optimize Energy Performance. The result concluded that more than 39.41% of energy cost was reduced and thus the project can obtain 16 points from this credit.
