FINAL EXAM Introduction of BIM enabled EPC assessments – Online course

To pass the course 80 % of the answers must be correct. In case you wish proof of passing the exam into your e-mail, add the needed information in the end of exam right before submitting. Certification of passing the exam is then automatically sent. Automated feedback is provided to all users on this page. Good luck!

1. 

Static calculations has the potential for more deatiled results than dynamic simulations.

2. 

There are no national approaches allowed to EPC calculations. In EU all assessments are done in similar way for equal comparison.

3. 

Where does the letters EPC come from?

4. 

In traditional methods, what barriers exist for comprehensive use of different building energy analysis?

5. 

What is the abbreviation of the directive behind EPC in the EU?

6. 

In assessing EPC for the standard use of the building the following input data is often fixed:

7. 

In cases IFC-file is directly imported from BIM to energy simulation software, what kind of EPC data can then usually be transferred?

8. 

EPC calculators are based on equations reflecting the real world phenomena, such as thermodynamic equations.

9. 

Utilization of the geometry obtained from the BIM model is one of the biggest denominators for faster EPC assessment.

10. 

BIM cannot be used for EPC assessments in existing buildings.

11. 

Special requirements for BIM modeling are not needed, if inter-operable file-formats are used for the energy simulations.

12. 

EPC assessment method is never dependent of the building type, same calculation method apply to all buildings.
