AN ANALYSIS OF BUILDING COMPONENT ENERGY USAGE

The research follows a data analysis approach using large amounts of existing building data to explore the relationships of building components and it’s impacts on energy usage. Using both statistical and machine learning techniques, building components are ranked according to their energy consumption impacts.

Prioritizing these critical components, a more tailored building energy guideline is to be formulated. Models are simulated using building simulation software to validate this argument.
