Building Simulation '93.

Testing BREDEM 8 against measured consumption data and against simulation models.

BREDEM 8 has been tested against measured consumption data and against simulation models. The testing has addressed both the annual and monthly energy use predictions and the predictions relating to important design issues.

Testing against measured consumption data of the highest quality has confirmed that the model produces overall predictions which are reliable. Testing against simulation models also demonstrates that BREDEM 8 produces overall predictions which are very comparable to those of the simulation models.
