Daylight Analysis, Moscow, 25 th of March, 11:00 The same Daylight Analysis but with the grid on another level (higher) in the 3d editor. To do this we use the Lighting Analysis in the Calculate tab.
ECOTECT COURSE WINDOWS
We can calculate daylight factors for any space, see how much daylight the windows let in and which rooms are more exposed to sunlight at specific days and times. attitude during the entire Ecotect Course, and suggest that is very important to search new approaches to the building simulation, using different tools and. Solar Radiation on a façade, average for November, Moscow, using tiling Solar Radiation on a façade, Barcelona, 6 th of October, 7:45, using a 3d fitted grid Solar Radiation, average amount of sunlight on different surfaces, Barcelona, 8 th of September, 7:30Įcotect™ can be used to visualize the daylighting performance of rooms and spaces in buildings. For example, to calcutate the amount of solar radiation on different areas of a façade of a building we can either divide the surface of the façade into rectangles using the Surface Subdivision function in the Modify tab or we can pull a grid over the façade using the 3d-Form Fit in Auto-Fit Grid to object in the Grid menu on the right. Insolation Analysis, Barcelona, average for the whole year Insolation Analysis, Barcelona, average for spring, 3d Grid There are several ways to calculate solar radiation in Ecotect™. University of Florida where she teaches the course related to Building. For this we use Calculate → Solar Access Analysis → Incident Solar Radiation. tools (Ecotect and iSBEM) were compared to measured data for electricity and. In Ecotect™ we can calculate solar exposure and shading mask graphs, check solar availability, calculate available solar radiation for photo-voltaic arrays, etc. And of course it is very important, for example, for building with solar panels. It is very important to consider solar radiation for the projects because it’s the largest source of heat gain in buildings.
ECOTECT COURSE PLUS
Daily Sun Path, Barcelona, 1 st of December, shadows shown for 15:00, screenshot Annual Sun Path plus Daily Sun Path and Shadow Range for the 6 th of June, Seoul Shadow Range, Barcelona, 25 th of November, 8am – 8pm Reflections with Solar Rays, Barcelona, 20 th of September, 14:00Įcotect™ allows us to analyse solar radiation in a very detailed way. For the Shadows and Reflections exercise (which I did on my Superblock) I chose Barcelona and Seoul to compare. But before that, of course, we have to load the Weather File. But for me the easiest way to control and set shadow and reflections is the Shadow Settings Panel on the right side of the window. To turn on shadows and reflections display we can use the Display tab in the upper panel or F9 and F10 on the keyboard. This helps find the right shape of the building and prevent overshadowing. The course ‘Ecotect Analysis' organised by 2aCAD celebrates in different editions and cities: Barcelona (10 and 11 May), Madrid (24 and 25 May), Valencia (31 May and 1 June) and Saragossa (7 and 8 June).Ecotect™ allows us to see how our future building is going to cast shadows on the surroundings or how do the current buildings cast shadows on each other on a certain day at a certain time or all year round.

Through the tool will be able to generate presentations in 3D in which they will be able to show the advantages of the design, and will be possible to justify it with real and reliable data.ĭuring the course will develop a practical case Spanish where do the different designs and modifications. Finally, and once optimised the building, will happen to the tool Ecotect to generate diverse calculations enotécnicos. the deliverables for an introductory course in lighting. By means of the access to the platform Green Building Studio will be able to detect the preliminary performance of the proposals. simulation results obtained with ECOTECTs build- in split flux method as opposed to RADIANCE is. Thanks to the course, the assistants will be able to analyse the feasibility of the proposals of a building using for said function the tools of Revit Arquitecture and his module of Analysis. With the end to give to know the possibilities that contributes the tool 2aCAD, skilled company in offering complete solutions for the design and manufacture of industrial products, systems of geographic information and visualisation and animation in 3D, presents the course ‘Ecotect Analysis'. Thanks to tools BIM like Ecotect Analysis is possible to take decisions of this type from the initial phases of the design of the construction, what supposes a big saving in the costs in the phases of project and construction. Of the same way, the rise of the price of the power, comports to that a lot of buildings design taking into account his energetic consumption. The sustainability of the constructions is an appearance that, each day, values more.
