Once completed, the 3D model we went to investigate the effects of solar radiation and shadows on our building at different times of the day.
Summer Solstice at 10 am
Summer Solstice at 4 pm
Winter Solstice at 10 am
Winter Solstice at 4 pm
- After performing these analyzes, we noticed that in summer our building does not cast a shadow on the surrounding buildings unlike winter when the shadows are longer and reach them.
We also analyzed the option SOLAR ANALYSIS solar radiation accumulated from the building
Summer solstice
Winter solstice
Annual analysis
Analysis during the summer
-In conclusion of this analysis we were able to ascertain that most of the facades of the building are constantly irradiated by sunlight thanks to its orientation.
We have changed the names of the masses in the table going project browser with the command-LEVEL MODEL we created different levels of the building by activating the button MASS FLOORS.
Finally, using the command SCHEDULE (MANAGE-SCHEDULES-SCHEDULE/QUANTITIES), we have calculated some data relevant to the project as FLOR AREA GROSS, GROSS SURFACE AREA, GROSS VOLUME and the number of housing.

-At the end of the analysis of solar radiation we can see how the parts of the building facing onto Viale Trastevere receive much less than the only other facades both during the summer and during the winter
