Energy efficient design of new and retroffited buildings in healthcare districts

From Linked Building Data Community Group
  1. Knowledge-based modelling of integrated EeB technologies and measures, optimally integrating these EeB design solutions, and validating the whole lifecycle energy performance during the design stage
  2. Provide the multidisciplinary design teams with advanced design tools by improving the open interoperability between Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Geographical Information System (GIS) in a Semantic Web (SW) environment, and by enabling model-based analysis of the energy performance.
  3. Effectively manage information flow, knowledge integration, communication and decision-making in the participatory semantics-driven design process according to the principles of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD).
  • Stakeholders: Building/Facility Owner, Architect, Energy Manager/Auditor, Engineer HVAC
  • Requirements:
  1. Client requirements (specific requirements for hospital design) and other constraints (location, max. dimensions, ..)
  2. Data of the existing building (in case of retrofitting)
  3. Data on district level (energy relevant data of buildings within the district)
  • LD benefits:
  1. Enable to link data from different data sources (in particular BIM and GIS)
  • Challenges:
  1. Capture design rules to assist the design team in transferring client requirements into energy efficient design.
  2. Expand building design to district level
