In the third of a three-part COTE workshop series, this session will provide detailed studies and the optimization of energy modeling for an architectural practice. Panelists will discuss the advantages of simplified “shoebox” energy models for initial design planning. They will also demonstrate multiple zone energy models for more advanced modeling. Participants will workshop the shoebox energy model and study how it can be an effective tool using a portfolio of industry standard software tools. This final presentation will tie together the tools needed for the integration of energy modeling in architectural practice.
After this session participants will be able to:
– Optimize teamwork throughout the design process.
– Discuss the advantages of shoebox energy modeling for initial design planning.
– Describe the differences between shoebox energy modeling and multiple zone energy models.
– List the alternatives for energy modeling.
