Streamline your energy-efficiency compliance workflow with our Modena SANS 10400-XA Revit Template Workshop. This workshop introduces the Modena SANS 10400-XA Revit Template and demonstrates how it can be used to prepare the information, schedules, views and documentation required for energy-efficiency compliance and council submissions. You’ll learn how to transfer the template content into an active Revit project and use its built-in tools to support a more structured and efficient compliance workflow.

Course Overview

The objective of this workshop is to help Revit users prepare SANS 10400-XA compliance information directly within their project environment. You’ll learn how to apply the Modena template, assign the required parameters, configure schedules, organise compliance-specific views and use the included calculation and annotation tools. The workshop also covers the preparation of drawings, schedules and supporting information for council submission.

What You'll Learn

  • Glazing Performance: Calculate glazing performance and assess applicable compliance requirements.
  • Thermal Conductance: Assess thermal conductance and U-values for relevant building elements.
  • Solar Heat Gain: Evaluate solar heat gain coefficients and their impact on energy performance.
  • Mechanical Ventilation: Determine mechanical ventilation energy index values where required.
  • Building Energy Demand: Calculate and assess building energy demand requirements.
  • Building Element Compliance: Assess floors, external walls and roof assemblies against applicable compliance requirements.
  • Roof Light Shafts: Calculate roof light shaft index values for compliance purposes.
  • SANS 10400-XA Schedules: Use the included schedule templates to organise and present compliance information within Revit.
  • Project Browser Organisation: Configure the Project Browser to support an efficient SANS 10400-XA documentation workflow.
  • View Templates and Filters: Apply view templates and view filters to manage and present compliance-specific information.
  • Area Calculation Tools: Utilise PHG and façade area calculation tools within the template.
  • Compliance Annotation: Use annotation families to clearly communicate required compliance information.
  • Council Submission Documentation: Produce compliance drawings, schedules and supporting documentation suitable for council submissions.

Who Should Attend

This workshop is ideal for:

  • Architects and Architectural Technologists: Revit users responsible for preparing architectural documentation and council submissions.
  • Revit and BIM Users: Professionals looking to integrate SANS 10400-XA compliance information into their Revit workflow.
  • Technical and Documentation Teams: Users involved in preparing, coordinating or reviewing energy-efficiency compliance documentation.

Prerequisites:

  • Attendees should have a working knowledge of Autodesk Revit, including project templates, schedules, families, parameters, views, sheets and basic model navigation.
  • Familiarity with SANS 10400-XA requirements or energy-efficiency submission documentation will be beneficial but is not essential.
