Infographic:Daylight Modeling in BIM: Illuminating Energy-Efficient Architecture
Introduction:
Integrating Daylight and Solar Analysis in BIM empowers the architects and engineers to design smarter, more energy-efficient buildings. By simulating the natural light patterns and solar exposure at different times of the day and year, the AEC teams can make the data-driven decisions that enhances the occupants comfort, reduces the artificial lighting demands and minimizes the HVAC loads.
Daylight and solar analysis through BIM is not just a feature — it's a forward-thinking strategy for the modern building design. By prioritizing the energy-efficient solutions from the earliest design stages, the AEC professionals can deliver the high-performance buildings that are environmentally responsible, economically viable as well as human-centered.
