Building information modelling (BIM) has revolutionised the conception, creation, and execution of construction projects. This study explores the use of BIM technology for a building’s energy analysis and performance assessment. An imperative requirement is to predict the energy demand and use an appropriate energy-saving strategy and construction design. The article’s foundation is BIM’s capacity to perform energy analysis on a 2B + G + 8P + service floor and ten residential floors building and further analysing the effect of changing its orientation and how the different climatic zones change the energy consumption. This article’s objective is to explain how climate zones and building orientation affect energy use. To determine the effect of different climatic zones on the energy requirements, the energy simulation is executed in four different climatic zones (warm and humid zone, hot and dry zone, composite zone, and moderate zone) of India. These findings can be used to make any significant improvements, efforts to reduce energy costs, or prevent energy waste. For this, Revit software and other software are used, namely Green Building Studio. The analysis’s findings show that by changing the orientation, energy consumption reduces by up to 7%, and by changing the climatic zone from moderate to hot and dry, energy consumption increases by 40%. According to the study’s findings, the adoption of BIM tools can greatly enhance building design and construction, resulting in more durable and high-performing buildings.

摘要

Building information modelling (BIM) has revolutionised the conception, creation, and execution of construction projects. This study explores the use of BIM technology for a building’s energy analysis and performance assessment. An imperative requirement is to predict the energy demand and use an appropriate energy-saving strategy and construction design. The article’s foundation is BIM’s capacity to perform energy analysis on a 2B + G + 8P + service floor and ten residential floors building and further analysing the effect of changing its orientation and how the different climatic zones change the energy consumption. This article’s objective is to explain how climate zones and building orientation affect energy use. To determine the effect of different climatic zones on the energy requirements, the energy simulation is executed in four different climatic zones (warm and humid zone, hot and dry zone, composite zone, and moderate zone) of India. These findings can be used to make any significant improvements, efforts to reduce energy costs, or prevent energy waste. For this, Revit software and other software are used, namely Green Building Studio. The analysis’s findings show that by changing the orientation, energy consumption reduces by up to 7%, and by changing the climatic zone from moderate to hot and dry, energy consumption increases by 40%. According to the study’s findings, the adoption of BIM tools can greatly enhance building design and construction, resulting in more durable and high-performing buildings.
