Overview of What You'll Learn

00:00

Ensure you meet performance requirements by bringing your Revit model into Insight.

00:06

In this video, I'm going to give you a brief introduction.

00:10

How can we ensure our buildings meet today's stringent energy requirements?

00:15

How can we establish our performance design criteria at the concept and schematic design phases,

00:22

when we're determining our buildings form and orientation?

00:26

That's where Insight comes in.

00:28

Insight is Autodesk cloud-based building performance analysis tool.

00:33

We're going to discuss the basics of energy modeling and building performance simulation,

00:39

and we're going to look at creating conceptual massing models in Revit.

00:43

And then we're going to use Insight to test the building's performance and see how it stacks up against specific energy standards.

00:51

At the end, you'll have a much better understanding of the energy modeling process,

00:56

and how you can use Insight to ensure your project meets your performance requirements.

01:02

You'll know how to create a basic massing model in Revit and then bring that model into Insight for evaluation.

01:09

We're going to test a couple different building configurations for a four story office building,

01:14

and see what shape and orientation performs best from an energy standpoint.
