Abstract
This master thesis is a theoretical report which takes its point of origin in the sustainability design and building energy performance. The report identifies that those can be fully implemented in the early design only through the multidisciplinary environment of BIM, which requires a much more integrated project process than the traditional one, currently experienced by the construction industry. The main problem deals with the possibilities for information exchange between Revit as a BIM tool, Be10 as an energy analysis tool and DGNB (LCAByg) as a sustainability certification system, with the ultimate purpose of enabling more efficient and optimized process of high-performance building design in the early design stages. The report follows the buildingSMART methodology for development of Information Delivery Manual and therefore goes through an assessment of all process, actors, information exchange needs and requirements, as well as challenges and future possibilities associated with further development in the area. The final outcome of the report is presented in the form of a process map, defining the integrated sustainable design process in a way, which would facilitate a most efficient collaboration and information exchange in the Conceptual Phase.
