Using simulation software, design professionals are able to continuously study and predict how decisions will impact the performance of the building from the early phases of design through occupancy without significant investment in mockups or manual calculations. The design and performance analysis tools also take advantage of cutting edge 3D spatial models to help users visualize simulation output, smoothing the translation of simulation results into the project design. It is especially useful in the design and delivery of sustainable 'green' projects because it allows architects and engineers to test, evaluate and respond to a variety of strategies. AugECOTECT (Building Performance Simulation Software)ĮCOTECT software is designed to aid in the simulation, analysis and optimization of high performance buildings and systems.
