1. Computer-based integration of design & production
2. Decreasing linearity of design process, work flow
3. What is needed for energy modeling and when it can occur in the design process
4. Full life-cycle use of building/energy models
Modern Design-Production Process
• Global, computer-based integration of design-production processes
• CAD-CAM in manufacturing
• Building Information Modeling (BIM)
Energy Modeling in the design work flow
• Conundrum: energy model needs detailed inputs but less useful once details locked in
• Many key elements - siting, orientation - are fixed in early stage of design
Importance of the schematic design phase
• Formulate dimensions of performance
• Concepts & “Schemes” - compare alternatives
• Adjustments before lock-in
Quantitative Approach – using METRICS
•Dimensions of performance
• Beyond energy, code
•Cost
•Comfort
•Usability
•Resilience
