FenestraPro

FenestraPro for Revit and Forma

Category: Building design
Works With: Revit, Autodesk Forma
Benefits of the solution
  • FenestraPro works within the Autodesk Forma and Revit workflow to strip out complexities associated with whole building energy analysis to guide on the optimal passive design solution relating to the performance of the façade.
  • Key Benefits Include:
  • 1. Establish, configure and apply optimal glass-to-wall ratio to enhance building performance, reduce carbon consumption and improve occupant comfort.
  • 2. Intuitively select and specify façade components to meet performance requirements with over 1,000 glazing types from leading global manufacturers.
  • 3. Optimise passive design considerations of envelope design for thermal performance, passive solar heat gain and daylighting from early-stage design in Forma to detailed design in Revit.
  • 4. Connect your Forma to Revit workflow automatically generating a detailed Revit model from Forma based on façade component configuration and specification.
  • 5. Understand the effects of shading from surrounding buildings and automatically generate the optimal shading device configuration on façades and surfaces.
  • 6. Detailed thermal performance analysis for facade components and code compliance of the building envelope.
Solution Details

Autodesk Revit 2023 - 2025; Windows: 10 or 11, 64-bit preferable; 4GB RAM minimum, 8GB+ RAM recommended; Installation size: 18 MB; Internet access required for API access to our servers

Sustainability Outcomes

FenestraPro accelerates the design of more energy efficient buildings by focusing on the performance of the façade - which influences more than half of the building's operational energy. 
Integrating seamlessly within BIM Workflows, with applications built into Autodesk Forma and Revit, FenestraPro simplifies performance analysis providing the optimal passive design solution at every stage of the design process to optimise energy efficiency and reduce carbon consumption in buildings.
