Advantages

Revit 2010 gbXML Support

The Bentley Tas gbXML import is more intelligent than other gbXML imports. It can "heal and forgive" errors that occur in the Revit gbxml output, which may go unnoticed and can cause major problems in less capable products. Alternatively, the geometry data may be passed directly into the energy simulation module. This is the original intent for gbxml. It overcomes issues of complex geometry being passed from one 3D model to another. This represents an excellent access route to energy simulation for older 3D CAD models.

Compliance Tool

A compliance tool is included for the U.K. regulations Part L2 and EP Certification. Compliance checking is available for Australia/New Zealand, as well as ASHRAE 90.1 and LEED for the United States.

FM Tool

Detailed and accurate energy use predictions for all plant components allow realistic energy and cost savings to be modeled for changes in operational management and plant and controls investment.

Design Tool: Building Simulation Geometry Model

A new generation 3D modeling front end offers efficient geometry creation and equally important geometry modifications.

Data Exchange

Bentley Tas Simulator V8i has the ability to import gbXML from Bentley Architecture, Bentley Building Mechanical Systems and Bentley Speedikon Architecture. Direct data exchange can be done between Bentley Hevacomp and Tas Simulator V8i.

Simulation Tool

Plant and building performance are evaluated 24/7/365 to provide accurate component sizing, energy use, running costs and CO2 emissions. Bentley Tas Simulator V8i includes a very robust and comprehensive passive design capability.
