Intro

CLASS SUMMARY
In this class, we will cover how to integrate GreenBIM as a part of your work!ow and sustainable design development. We will discuss how to develop your schematic design strategy and prede"ned work!ow with tools like Project Vasari, Autodesk Ecotect Analysis, Revit Architecture, DesignBuilder, RADIANCE, and DAYSIM. Through case studies, we will present an integrated work!ow using multiple applications and show you how to gain instant feedback on visual, acoustic, and thermal comfort. The class will provide an overview of tools and strategies for ef"cient sustainable design development as well as a process and integration of different tools and level of model detailing. This approach was developed from real-life practice and experience. This work!ow will help you to gain expert knowledge on process and tools from site analysis to detailed optimization and validation of your building project.
