Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 土木工程學研究所 === 106 === Enormous changes have taken place in the construction industry and the engineering professions over the last decade in the promotion of environmentally responsible buildings. Green building refers to a structure that not only is more energy efficient, use natural or reclaimed material in its construction and is more in harmony with the environments in which they exist but also is concerned about economy, utility, durability and comfort. The more the necessity of green building is increasing, the more studies is conducted to find the most effective way to going green. Typically the application of BIM and energy simulation (ES) tools may help reduce significant time and resources. Thus it is vital to develop an integration framework that illustrates how BIM and energy simulation tools can support Green certification assessments. This study is finding an integration framework of BIM, ES tools and LEED certification assessments. To achieve this research, four methods are selected including a systematic review of the literature, a deeply study of software functions, practicing software and expert judgments. This study contributes either an overview of integration of BIM and ES tools and LEED version 4 certification assessments or a detailed level of particular credits. It is hoped that the integration framework that has been built in this study will continue to pick up in LEED later version, and will use as a guideline for LEED certification users.
