Architectural, structural and technical solutions can optimise the energy goals of buildings and reduce their carbon footprint. The study has been commissioned from EQUA Simulation Finland Oy. The Finnish design workflow was studied from the perspective of an energy expert. In addition, the work explored how data exchange between Revitbuilding-information-software and IDA ICE-building-performance-simulation-software can be carried out. The study was vital to make today’s energy, indoor climate and building performance analysis process more efficient and to reduce human errors in projects. The main goal of the study was to survey how information is transferred between the energy designer and other designers in the project. The study fol...
