I don’t have a video specifically for the Irish Part L. You can use the techniques in my videos and apply them to the current (changeable) regulations easily enough. The main thing to consider is the overall u-value for the fabric element and the item itself. How the u-value is achieved is less important (e.g. the thickness of each material is up to you, so long as the overall value is at or below the regulation value).
Very useful video. I am new to IES VE software, Could you please make some videos on attaching dxf files and working on the geometry with these dxf files.
Can you please make a video to show how to edit a complex geometry that has already been created like creating hole on the floor, different types of roofs (flat roof,) and so on
Good suggestion. My time for creating new videos is quite limited lately, but if you can send me an example of geometry that you’ve made, I’ll have a look. Best email for me is cadandstuff@gmail.com
I used sketch up for a short while about 11/12 years ago just to give it a try out. Haven’t used it since, so I’m not sure about how it works with IESVE.
Is there a way in IES to rotate multiple individual objects each by a certain angle. For example, I need to rotate the fins on the window of a building to face east. I have 469 fins and I do not want to do it manually. Is there a good, quick way to do that?
Hi CD and Stuff Today i start learning about IES -VE . So i would like to advice me if this Video will be first step to learn or this for stage later ? i dont know any thing about this program before and today i have to start learn it . Thanks
Hi. I would say that learning how to draw the geometry of your model is a good starting point. There are other settings too, such as the building template manager, which are important and some people may say that is a better starting point, but I always start with the geometry when teaching my own students. There are some good guides available from the IESVE website at the following link: www.iesve.com/support/userguides If you have any specific queries, you can reach me via email to waynegmit@gmail.com
If you want to book some time with me for specific training that is not covered in the videos, please contact me and I’ll go over the details with you.
Hi I am new with IES VE, I am trying to simulate a basement. do you know the best way to do this. I attempted one but I wasn't sure how to connect my underground basement to my building via air pumps. I am also not sure if IES VE is registering my basement as an underground structure. I can send my model to you.
@@CADandStuff hey here is the link drive.google.com/open?id=1_daskqxuHIbjAs-KtkDQMSiH0fjY9eq7 to my underground space i have model a house and the underground space as different structures. My underground space consist of 3 boxes, the outer box is insulation, the inner box is thermal mass and the normal underground structure. the air temperature in the underground space still varies with the outside temperature despite me doing this. Do you also have tutorials on Apache HVAC, I am trying to use the air temperature in the underground space to heat upand cool up the building.
@@CADandStuff No Sir i have a model prepapred i am just opening it in IES VE through open file and then through your video doing different analysis but one of my task is that i have to do it for one part of the building like a zone and not for all the building.
The key to this is to make sure that you have modelled individual rooms as “rooms”’in IESVE. If you try to import geometry from other software, you have to be very careful that there are no overlaps or gaps in the geometry. Depending on the complexity, it might actually make sense to build the model from the very start in IESVE, rather than importing something that might cause problems. When you have rooms modelled individually, it is relatively easy to extract simulation results from just the room(s) you're interested in, rather than the whole building.
Nice video, how do you sort out intersections. When I use the prism function to draw a room within a room I always get a intersection dialog box, I've tried looking at the model it handbook but it does not discuss this issue.
Hi. You can partition spaces after you’ve created the overall shape, but it can be fiddly. What I do is I build the model one room at a time, rather than starting with the overall shape. For example, if I have a square room that has a smaller square room in one corner, I’d draw the smaller square first using the prism option, then I’d draw the larger room around that (essentially an “L” shape). If room boundaries overlap, there’s a good chance simulations will not run. Similarly, if there are small gaps between room boundaries, the simulation might run, but the results might be wrong.
