Benchmarking the energy efficiency of commercial buildings

Benchmarking energy-efficiency is an important tool to promote the efficient use of energy in commercial buildings. Benchmarking models are mostly constructed in a simple benchmark table (percentile table) of energy use, which is normalized with floor area and temperature. This paper describes a benchmarking process for energy efficiency by means of multiple regression analysis, where the relat...

COST ESTIMATION OF HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE (HPC) HIGH- RISE COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS BY NEURAL NETWORKS High-rise commercial buildings

Neural network approach is applied to establish relationships between the quantities/cost of the concrete/formwork, which is required for the structural elements of tall buildings using high performance concrete (HPC), and the design variables. Hybrid and hierarchical strategies are proposed for the cost estimation, where the feed-forward networks are adopted. After training, the neural network...
