This project fosters an improved application of BIM, information management and communication, by...

Daylight Performance Simulations and 3D Modeling in BIM and non-BIM Tools

The fusion between building assessment and design can lead to better informed design decisions. Performance oriented design is better supported through the use of interoperable file formats for data exchange between BIM and non-BIM tools. At the same time, the parameters that influence the calculation during a performative assessment are no...
