1. 

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

2. 

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

3. 

In BIM-based projects all disciplines such as architects and HVAC-engineers work together on the same BIM model.

4. 

All needed input data for EPC assessments automatically builds into BIM as project proceeds.

5. 

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

6. 

BIM cannot be used for EPC assessments in existing buildings.

7. 

When is EPC officially required? 

8. 

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

9. 

Which of the file-formats below enable interoperable transfer of EPC information between different BIM programmes?

10. 

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

11. 

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