Building physics is the application of the principles of physics to the built environment. Building physicists bring a fundamental understanding of physics to improving the design of building fabrics and surrounding spaces.

An understanding of the site and its environment is an integral part of a building program and is a prerequisite for good design. A site analysis is the gateway to energy conscious design and environmental responsive architecture.

A passive design involves the use of natural processes for heating or cooling to achieve balanced interior conditions.

Active design strategies use purchased energy (including electricity and natural gas) to keep buildings comfortable

Natural lighting, also known as daylighting, is a technique that efficiently brings natural light into your home using exterior glazing (windows, skylights, etc.)

Environmental simulations Softwares can help us to expect what the building working and the thermal comfort of building

Thermal loads are the amount of energy needed to be added or removed from a space by the HVAC system to keep occupants comfortable. Right-sizing the HVAC system the HVAC system requires understanding the heating and cooling loads within the space.

BIM offers entirely new way to create an EAM automatically from Revit building elements and two programs like Autodesk Revit and Autodesk Insight 360 can be used to create superior energy and environmental performance inside the building.
