Optimization and Performance Analysis of Residential Building for Sustainable Energy Design Through BIM.

The problems and effects of global warming stand a primary concern for most of the people in today’s world. As the demand for energy increases, the available energy resources noticeably decrease which rapidly upsurges the need for energy-efficient buildings. Housing is one of the largest energy consumers as it consumes about 40% of the total energy. This study aims to improve the energy consumption and the strength of houses in India compared to other materials in construction walls. The study includes the record of electricity life cycle, fuel consumption and Life Cycle Energy Costs (LCEC), the intensity of the annual energy consumption and the peak value of the annual demand, its evaluation and presents the comparison with the original planning. Finally, the measure of the total annual energy and total electricity and fuel life cycle costs for the building wall in the Indian scenario using sustainable energy efficient design and construction methods under BIM and tools like Revit, Insight360 and Green Building Studio are presented. An energy analysis model that integrates BIM to create precise residential performance forecasts with better optimization scenarios is represented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
