It’s early in the design process. Wouldn’t it be great if there was something that evaluated the benefit of adding insulation, the impact of installing heftier glazing, or the increased efficiency in rotating your building 10 degrees? Architects don’t want to get into energy “modeling.” That’s not their gig. Let's leave that to the MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) professionals. Early energy analysis is the way to go, and tools within Revit software are available to help guide the process. In this session, we will investigate the tools available, including Insight 360 software, and the benefits of running energy analysis early in project design. We’ll discuss the fine line between energy “modeling” and energy “analysis,” as well as workflow implementation and documentation. This session features Revit. AIA Approved

It's never polite to ask a Revit model its carbon but now your 75% CD model is being asked for its embodied carbon estimates to establish LEED v5 benchmarks. Don't fret! Forma Carbon Insights (formerly Autodesk Insight) can give you real-time data without slowing your model's production team. Using the Total Carbon Analysis dashboard in Forma Carbon Insights, you can take all the work you've already done and transform it into carbon data. Then, you can dedicate some time to the online dashboard, refining carbon inputs without waiting for Revit buffer time or changing your family types. With your knowledge of local laws, client goals, and national averages, you can build out a holistic visual communications tool that toggles between options and their associated carbon costs in real time.

With the 2023 release of AutoCAD software, Autodesk has expanded and improved its advisory engine known as My Insights. When introduced, this feature was delivered to the AutoCAD user by serving personalized productivity insights based on product usage data. Now, Autodesk is exploring how CAD, building information modeling (BIM), and IT managers can also benefit from access to the product usage data from the industry and from within their companies and teams. Imagine having a line of sight into how and where products are used, where training is needed, what efficiency opportunities are being missed, and how CAD standards are being followed—and being able to make better technology decisions, all supported by data. In this roundtable session, we’ll do more than imagine—you’ll be able to brainstorm, explore, and learn from other industry experts, technology managers, and Autodesk data specialists about how we can expand the My Insights feature to better meet your needs.

Since 80% of carbon is already locked into a product by the decisions made at the design phase, making good design and manufacturing choices is key to producing products with lower carbon impact. However, today, designers and engineers lack the data and tools to inform their design and manufacturing decisions, all while new and upcoming regulations are forcing designers and manufacturers to produce their products in more-sustainable ways. To tackle this issue, this talk will introduce Autodesk's new Manufacturing Sustainability Insights tool. Created in partnership with Gravity Climate, this interactive manufacturing-impact exploration tool for Autodesk Fusion 360 will provide users with valuable insights into the carbon emissions associated with producing their designs via various manufacturing methods, enabling users to make better informed decisions that support sustainable manufacturing practices, resulting in better products for the planet.

Revit software and Insight software are getting popular among architects due to the rapid feedbacks on energy/daylight analysis when updating the design at the early stage. But how can we ensure the best results? How can we apply the methodology in detailed design phases and integrate the engagement from engineers? This class will present how Revit and Insight were used in designing a net-zero project in New York from concept development to construction document. See the rules and tips that the design/energy team concluded in building up the graphical model with proper system settings in Revit for promising analysis results from Insight and Green Building Studio. Learn why the team determined to use Insight for future high-performance projects after comparing the accuracy (reliable results), efficiency (time saved), versatility (controllable variables/outputs), and accessibility (quicker learning times) between Insight and the competing tools (that is to say, IES VE and Ladybug) in multiple design stages.

The next generation of Insight in Revit 2025 software is a powerful tool for predicting carbon usage in building designs from the earliest design stages. With this highly accessible tool, anyone can participate in the process of making critical decisions regarding the sustainable design of a building. By combining Revit model data with the open-source EnergyPlus engine, fast and accurate energy calculations become easy for all Revit users. Learn how Victus Engineering, a small MEP firm in St. Paul, Minnesota, used the next generation of Insight to design a sustainable library building. From the earliest schematic design stages, Victus engineers used Insight in combination with other Revit tools like Systems Analysis to select and rightsize equipment, design sustainable systems, and drive conversations with the architect regarding the overall direction of the design. Design more-sustainable buildings, reduce carbon usage, and meet stringent sustainability goals with this powerful tool.

Energy and carbon analysis often arrives too late after key decisions have been made. Despite tools like Autodesk Forma, Revit, and Insight software, most teams rely on manual, disconnected workflows that limit iteration. This session will introduce a connected, data-driven approach. By embedding performance data in BIM and using AI to generate simulation logic, teams can automatically produce carbon and energy analyses earlier, more frequently, and without deep simulation expertise. Through a live demo, you'll see design data flow from Autodesk Forma through Revit into automated workflows and into Insight for actionable results. Attend this class to learn how to replace one-off analysis with scalable, repeatable carbon workflows.
