Early stage analysis for quick iterative assessments. The IES VE-Toolkits are ideal for very early stage indicative feedback, when time is short and answers need to be rapid.
Interactive visual and rich-text reports. A variety of VE-Toolkits offer different capabilities – automatically running the chosen analysis and generating interactive visual and rich-text reports within minutes, and all at the press of just a few buttons. Technical selections are also made straightforward with pre-populated choices.
Easy model import. Direct connectivity to SketchUp™, Revit® and ArchiCAD® allows quick, effective feedback direct from early architectural models. A choice of typical building properties eliminates the need for detailed information, while links to global weather files provide real climate data.
Analysis to understanding. VE-Toolkit users will build an important understanding of how the proposed design responds to the environment, and what strategies are candidates for further investigation. Answering the question, “am I moving in the right direction?”, the IES VE-Toolkits help the design team establish the most appropriate sustainable and energy efficient approach – one that can be progressed in detail using VE-Gaia and VE-Pro.
