Friday, March 14, 2008 from 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM (PT)
Presenter: Khee Pom Lam PhD, RI BA, Professor of Architecture, Carnegie Mellon University
It is well recognized that the greatest opportunity to
influence a building’s operational performance and costs lies in the
early stages of the design process. However, given the complexity
involved in building an energy model, there is a need for effective,
efficient, user-friendly tools to assess energy impacts early in the
conceptual design phase. Presenter Khee Pom Lam will review the
usability, functionality, reliability and prevalence of five energy
modeling tools representative of the broad categories of tools
currently available.
Following Lam’s introduction, technical experts from
the BetterBricks lab network will share their experiences using each of
the same modeling tools. Energy modeling tools that will be discussed
include: eQuest, Ecotect, Energy Scheming, TAS, and Green Building
Studio.
Presented in partnership with Betterbricks.
