Development of the Laboratory-Based Course to Deliver Sustainability in Built Environment using Building Information Modeling

加州州立大学长滩分校(CSULB)的这个项目正在开发一门基于实验室和项目的实践虚拟课程，内容是使用建筑信息建模(BIM)技术实现建筑环境的可持续性。对能够将BIM和绿色设计相结合的专家的需求正在增加，因为可持续发展正在成为工业实践的推动力。使用BIM分析建筑性能使学生能够超越纯粹用于可视化目的的传统2D和3D模型。该项目的成果包括10个核心模块和5个高级模块，包括太阳辐射分析、采光分析、遮阳分析、通风和空气流动分析以及建筑材料和能源使用造成的温室气体排放的量化和分析。通过这些单元，学生将为理解气候变化和臭氧消耗等全球环境问题奠定坚实的基础，熟悉建筑评估的概念，清楚地了解可持续发展和可持续建筑，并了解可持续发展与建筑材料、建筑形式和建筑系统之间的关系。这些模块涵盖美国绿色建筑委员会评级系统、能源与环境设计领导地位(LEED)的七个信用类别，包括可持续场地、能源和大气、水效率、材料和资源、室内环境质量、设计创新和区域优先事项。该项目包括以下教育组成部分：1)建筑环境的可持续性；2)利用BIM改变工程教育的教学方法；3)建筑教育的可持续性。该项目的一个组成部分是通过CSULB校园提供的外联计划向K-12学生介绍绿色建筑和BIM技术，CSULB校园被指定为西班牙裔服务机构。

This project at California State University-Long Beach (CSULB) is developing a hands-on laboratory- and project-based virtual course on sustainability of the built environment using Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology. Demand for specialists who can integrate BIM and Green Design is increasing because sustainability is becoming a driving force in industrial practice. Using BIM to analyze building performance enables students to go beyond conventional 2D and 3D models used for purely visualization purposes. The outcomes of this project include ten core modules and five advanced modules, including solar radiation analysis, day-lighting analysis, shading analysis, ventilation and air flow analysis and quantification and analysis of greenhouse gas emissions due to the building materials and energy use of the buildings. Through these modules, the students develop a strong foundation for understanding global environmental problems such as climate change and ozone depletion, being familiar with the concept of building assessment, gaining a clear understanding about sustainable development and sustainable construction, and understanding the relationships between sustainability and building materials, building forms, and building systems. The modules cover seven credit categories of the United States Green Building Council's rating system, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), including sustainable sites, energy and atmosphere, water efficiency, materials and resources, indoor environmental quality, and innovation in designs, and regional priority. The project has the following educational components: 1) Sustainability in Built Environment; 2) Changes of Teaching Method in Engineering Education using BIM, and 3) Sustainability in Construction Education. One component of the project introduces K-12 students to green buildings and BIM technology through outreach programs available at CSULB campus, which is designated as a Hispanic Serving Institution.
