Abstract:Improving building energy efficiency has become a necessity in construction industry over the last few years. Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology is a very powerful option to achieve this goal in which the energy demand reduction can be considered in early stage design. Nevertheless, most of building energy simulation software recognized by Spanish government is not integrated in BIM. In consequences, external software is necessary to be used in order to achieve this aim. This process significantly… Show more
