  7. Energy AnalysisReusing BIM Data for Energy Analysis BA or BBMS model Analysis Results Analytical Space Model Spaces/zones via gbXML Hevacomp Energy Model

  8. Analytical Space Model (ASM) • Visualize the model in an analytical state • Close gaps, create story (adding floor slab) to create the closed shell geometry required for analysis. • Building space relationships are analyzed for adjacencies and location to create "Secondary boundary conditions" that represent the surfaces that define the individual spaces.
