4 Steps For Developing Efficient BIM Models For Energy Analysis In 2021: BIM Consulting Services

Feb 8, 2021 Posted by The AEC Associates BIM Consulting Services

The rising world temperatures and the resultant environmental issues mean that “Green architecture” doesn’t remain just a buzz word in 2021; architects must strive hard to produce environmentally-conscious buildings now. Working closely with firms providing BIM consulting services can help them achieve this objective. You have been focusing on designing functionally efficient, aesthetically breathtaking structures all your life and suddenly there is this additional responsibility to make them more energy efficient; a modern tool like energy analytical models developed in simulation by BIM Service Providers can be a very good strategy for you to produce high performing, energy-conscious buildings. This is the need of the hour in an era when “global warming” has become a dreaded reality.

Significance of energy analysis:

Energy analysis plays a significant role in the design process today, studies show that more than fifty percent of the power produced around the world is consumed by our buildings. You won’t achieve much by adopting half-hearted measures and introducing some features in bits and pieces like using solar panels or other such elements. There is a necessity to develop energy models during the initial design phase itself to evaluate the energy requirements and future performance of the building. This would allow you to alter the design and composition of the structure to get the desired results. BIM creates efficient energy models to enable you to make your buildings more environmentally-conscious, following are some essential steps of the process to develop these models.

  • Using building elements

BIM consulting services providers use building elements and  other related design and structural information for developing an accurate energy model for the building. This gives you an exact idea of the energy to be consumed by individual elements and allows you to minimize the energy requirement of the structure.

  • Adding important related information

Other important relevant information must be added to make the energy analytical model more comprehensive and complete in every sense, such as the climate and surroundings, site topography, chosen materials etc. This information helps you to take informed decisions for using natural elements in order to make the building more energy efficient and self sufficient.

  • Critical information regarding building parts

You must add critical information regarding important building parts, such as the roof, walls, foundations and floors etc to make an energy analytical model accurate and complete. You can thus design these parts in a way that they contribute towards making the structure energy efficient with minimum resources.

  • Getting well acquainted with BIM software

Firms offering BIM Consulting Services have experienced, skilled professionals with mastery over the latest BIM software, like Revit, that makes creating effective energy analytical models a habit for them. For example, employing a tool like ‘Use building element mode’ helps you set the above mentioned elements as the basis of the design.

You need to develop comprehensive, accurate energy models in order to produce buildings with minimum energy requirements. These models allow designers to notice the shortcomings in their designs and make necessary adjustments to create structures that can maintain their performance levels for a very long time by encouraging inhabitants to alter their behavioral pattern.
