Dynamic Building Modeling

Create BIM building models for building energy planning

With this online tool, you can create a complete building model from BIM data for energy planning and simulation. Building geometry, components, rooms, and technical parameters are imported automatically and prepared for calculations of heating load, cooling load, and energy demand.

The tool supports engineers, architects, energy consultants, building technicians, and planners in the model-based planning of modern buildings. For the energy calculations, the open-source simulation system EnergyPlus is used in combination with OpenStudio.

What is the building model used for?

A digital building model forms the basis for reliable building energy planning. Even in the design phase, different variants can be compared and their impact on energy consumption, heating and cooling loads, and thermal comfort can be evaluated.

Typical applications:

  • BIM-based building planning
  • Residential and office buildings
  • Industrial and commercial buildings
  • Heating and cooling load calculation
  • Energy demand analysis
  • Renovation and modernization projects
  • Building energy optimization

How does the tool work?

  1. Import a BIM file or choose a demo building
  2. Review building geometry, rooms, and components
  3. Define calculation parameters
  4. Generate the building model
  5. Start the simulation and analysis
  6. Download the report as JSON

Which data is imported?

  • Building geometry
  • Floors and rooms
  • Components and U-values
  • Usage zones
  • Window and facade areas
  • Technical building data
  • Calculation parameters

Which results are output?

  • BIM import status
  • Detected rooms and zones
  • Building areas and volumes
  • Heating load
  • Cooling load
  • Energy demand
  • Building energy balance
  • JSON-Bericht

Typical benefits

  • fast creation of digital building models
  • automatic adoption of BIM data
  • practical preparation for energy calculations
  • optimization of energy efficiency and building services
  • suitable for planning, modernization, and training

Privacy and data processing

For building model creation, the uploaded file is temporarily transferred to the server, processed, and automatically deleted after completion. The data is used exclusively to create the building model and the analysis report.

Further information can be found in our privacy policy.

Consent to processing

I have read the notice on data processing and consent to the processing of the uploaded building file for the purpose of building energy planning.

Max. 10 MB. JSON with geometry, U-values, setpoints, ventilation, and shading. Leave empty and activate the demo for a sample building.
