• MEP network model version comparisations (tool for change orders)

• Design information queries from database

• Equipment approval process- Contractor propose devices according the designer information- Designer/Project Management accept / reject proposals- Approval process situation can be followed

• After approval, contractor imports all device information needed for FM (pdf’s etc.)

• Previous phases ensures that BIM information is available for FM usage – a starting point of FLM (Facility Lifecycle Management)

• Requirements can be compared to design and contractor values

• Service Areas and MEP networks/equipments are connected to spaces

• Device approval process information is stored in design database – usage in FM software through webservices etc.

• Connections to Building Automation System -> BIM based Building Monitoring

Spacetypes and Requirements

SQL


For having MEP design strated, you need requirements for Indoor Quality, equipment

• With colloboration of customer, maximum temperatures etc. has to be decided

• With these requirements MEP designer makes comfort and energy simulations for fullfilling the requirements. End result is a target value for each space, which MEP designer has to fulfill. (for example:Requirement: max. 26oC -> simulation -> target value 1.2kW cooling

Linking requirements to spaces


Architectural model and requirements is linked together with ”Roomex”

• After that every space knows it’s requirements according to indoor quality

Service area charts


Spaces with requirements are loinked to service area charts (for example Air handling unit service areas)

• Linking is made using ifcSpaces, so ifcZones are created to IFC file

• 2D Visualization for example with Solibri etc.

Energy and Comfort simulations


Dynamic simulation of energy and comfort is made with requirements, building model and service area charts simulation.

• Every space is simulated

• Alternative simulations and comparisations for different envelopes, windows etc. -> beginning of LCC calculations

Optimisation of Energy usage


With parametric energysimulation in Riuska, you can get 200-2000 (or more) simulation results of building energy consumption.

Results are viewed in userfriendly cloud service for decission making purposes – real time search for optimate solution in one meeting with people having knowledge about expences and reality of limitations
