oa Green BIM to achieve Passivhaus in the MENA region

The use of building information modeling (BIM) for green projects is expected to grow very fast enhancing the bond between BIM and green construction. The presentation will discuss how BIM technology can be implemented to achieve green, sustainable and ecological buildings through:· Generating the conceptual model to simulation· Simulating building different masses to get the best environmental results and compare them together· Designing and building alternatives and choosing the best design option· Using different materials to reach Indoor thermal comfortAlso the presentation will discuss how Green BIM can support integrated design in Qatar from the conceptual design stage till the operation stage reaching client satisfaction.The presentation will show examples for environmental analysis and simulations, for wind, heating and cooling studies that were extracted from BIM and how they affected the design in each project stage and through the project lifecycle.
