The project aims to create an easy to use integrated building design software tool for SME’s to encourage the development of low impact buildings in the UK.The toolset includes a BIM system whereby a house can be designed in the system’s CAD module and feedback given on financial and carbon costs, and sustainability indicators such as u-values, SAP, embodied/operational CO2 and Code for Sustainable Homes. Designs can be created using either the software’s own material assemblies, or whole house templates, both of which can be modified, for the quick and easy creation of designs to specific ratings. The software contains an extensive on-line database of construction products, created as part of the project, comprising information on cost, physical properties, usage and wastage factors, embodied CO2.Outputs include indicative SAP ratings, SWMP estimates, 2d drawings, 3d visualisations, customer quotes, materials schedules, SMM7/NRM bill of quantities. Customisable charts provide comparisons of performance against benchmarks and best practice, or against other designs in the system.The software facilitates users’ exploration of design options, comparing the affect of design variations on both cost and sustainability indicators, thus encouraging innovation, sensitivity analysis of designs, and the consideration of different construction materials and methods prior to build.

该项目旨在为中小企业创建一个易于使用的综合建筑设计软件工具，以鼓励在英国开发低影响建筑。该工具包包括一个BIM系统，可以在系统的CAD模块中设计房屋，并提供财务和碳成本的反馈，以及可持续性指标，如u值，SAP，体现/操作CO2和可持续住宅代码。设计可以使用软件自己的材料组件或整个房屋模板创建，这两种模板都可以修改，以便快速轻松地创建特定评级的设计。该软件包含一个广泛的建筑产品在线数据库，作为项目的一部分创建，包括成本，物理属性，使用和浪费因素，体现CO2的信息。输出包括指示性SAP评级，SWMP估计，2D图纸，3D可视化，客户报价，材料计划，SMM 7/NRM工程量清单。该软件方便用户探索设计方案，比较设计变化对成本和可持续性指标的影响，从而鼓励创新，对设计进行敏感性分析，并在建造前考虑不同的建筑材料和方法。
