The multicriteria assessment of multi-storey office building energy performance

Abstract

Global trends indicate that the industrial development of countries requires increasingly larger energy resources. Energy resources that are most wildly used in industry are non-renewable natural resources. Therefore, the energy savings and the energy efficiency are given greater consideration. The advancement of information technology enables more frequent use of computer software tools such as BIM for this purpose. Computer-aided modeling makes it possible to simulate buildings and processes needed to achieve the result before they actually take place. According to this principle, the article presents an assessment model for an analysis of design variants of multi-storey office building.
