Building Simulation Group

The intention of the CIBSE Building Simulation Group is to inform and promote best practice in using computer simulation codes for building-related applications, to improve the accuracy of predicting their performance in practice with the aim of designing comfortable and healthier buildings with optimum energy efficiency.

Objectives of the group

• To broaden members' knowledge, skills and awareness of the available computer simulation tools, evaluation methods, computer-based problem solving, etc.
• To act as a medium for providing information that meets the requirements of the interested parties in relation to computer simulation codes for building and services system design and operation.
• To work with CIBSE in developing new publications to provide guidance in the application of simulation tools, best practices and quality control.
• To seek collaboration with other groups within CIBSE, such as the Natural Ventilation Group, the Intelligent Buildings Group, etc. who can benefit from the application of building simulation tools.
• To provide speakers for CIBSE events, technical papers, seminars and training courses, and to organise a programme of events for group members and interested parties in collaboration with CIBSE regions
