In this seminar, you will learn:
- How to evaluate your BIM model (REVIT, ArchiCAD) using Autodesk ECOTECT,
- How to use ECOTECT, REVIT and GBS programs that will help you make better design decisions
- The purpose and benefits of BIM, ECOTECT modeling
- When to use BIM, ECOTECT for improving green and sustainable design
- How can we evaluate our BIM's Sustainability using ECOTECT?
- What is the simplest file conversion method for BIM and Sustainability?
- Our new mandatory requirements (Job, Career) for BIM, GREEN Building and LEED
- How to interpret and report their results
- To understand the techniques and design principles for low energy buildings and the review of energy-efficient design strategies
- To understand the interdependence of design, location, weather, and scientific factors in developing energy-efficient buildings
- To acquire the simulation skills to research weather and contexts in the schematic design process and run simulation programs to analyze building performance
Continuing Education Units (CEUs)
Every participant will be issued a certificate from the Dean of IIT's College of Architecture as a document to report continuing education for your profession. The College of Architecture, IIT, is a registered AIA/CES provider. According to AIA/CES guideline, Building Energy Analysis Seminar is considered the HSW (Health, Safety and Welfare) subject area. AIA members will receive up to 6 AIA/CEUs per day.
