List of requirements and Information Delivery Specification (IDS) for Building Performance Simulation (BPS)

The uploaded files include: A spreadsheet listing the requirements for Building Performance Simulation (BPS); An Information Delivery Specification (IDS) developed based on this list of requirements. Both documents were created as part of the "IDS group" effort within the IEA EBC Annex 91 initiative, which focuses on "openBIM for Energy Efficient Buildings". The objective is to define a comprehensive list of requirements that IFC models must meet to be utilised for Building Performance Simulation (BPS) purposes, as outlined by the authors. Each requirement is categorised within the BPS spectrum, as indicated in the "Category" column of the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is organised as described in the "Description" sheet. To export the IDS, the IDS4ALL tool was used.
