Ecotect Analysis

EcotectVisualize Sustainable Design.


Autodesk® Ecotect® Analysis software is a comprehensive concept-to-detail sustainable design and analysis tool, providing a wide range of simulation and analysis functionality to improve performance of existing buildings and new building designs. Online energy, water, and carbon-emission analysis capabilities integrate with desktop tools for visualizing and simulating building performance within the context of its environment. Users can interact with powerful 3D feedback to explore factors such as solar, shadows and reflections, and daylighting. Customers who purchase Autodesk® Subscription for their Autodesk Ecotect Analysis license can access the web-based* technology available through the Autodesk® Green Building Studio® energy analysis service to more quickly evaluate multiple design alternatives for energy efficiency and carbon neutrality.


Simulate Early. Analyze Often. Create More Sustainable Designs.

Add value through energy and water efficiency and environmental performance.

Simulate Early. Analyze Often. Create More Sustainable Designs.

Comprehensive analysis capabilities help you to analyze and simulate conceptual designs. Study alternatives and make decisions earlier to deliver achievable, resource-efficient building designs.

Stay Competitive with BIM Solutions
from Autodesk


The world is changing. The economy is changing. Building and architectural firms must adopt new design practices to meet increasing requirements for energy and resource efficiency - delivering designs that minimize the environmental impact of new and renovated buildings, while seeking opportunities to keep costs low. By integrating sustainable design technologies from Autodesk into your workflows, you can more easily transform today's challenges into profitable opportunities. Autodesk building information
modeling (BIM) solutions help make sustainable design practices easier, more efficient, and less costly. BIM solutions from Autodesk - Autodesk® Revit® Architecture and Autodesk® Revit® MEP software - are interoperable with Autodesk Ecotect Analysis.

When you add subscription to your Autodesk Ecotect Analysis software license, you can get access* to the following capabilities of the Autodesk Green Building Studio web-based service:

Whole-Building Energy Analysis calculates the total energy use and carbon emissions of your building model on an annual, monthly, daily, and hourly basis.

Carbon Emission Reporting reports carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions for nearly all aspects of a proposed building, including on-site fuel use as well as
emissions from power plants.

Water Usage and Cost Evaluation summarizes estimated water use inside and outside the building, based on the number of occupants as well as the building type.

Visual Impact helps you to analyze site projection angles, assess obstructions, calculate vertical sky components for any point or surface, and visualize the no-sky line in any space.

Solar Radiation analysis enables you to visualize incident solar radiation on windows and surfaces, showing differential incident solar radiation calculated over any period.

Daylighting calculates daylight factors and illuminance levels at any point in the model or over the analysis grid. Helps determine potential savings due to daylight-linked lighting design.

 

Thermal Performance calculates heating and
sensible cooling loads for models with any number
of zones or types of geometry, and analyzes effects
of occupancy, internal gains, infiltration, and
equipment items.
