Compliance Report
|
A Compliance document is automatically produced by
SBEM. The compliance document has been designed as a complete summary of
compliance information for the project. The document consists of the following
sections.
- Administrative
Information: Project, Occupier, Certifier details – these appear
exactly as entered on the Project tab. Also, the Certification tool – details
of the calculation engine (Government SBEM tool) and the Energy Simulation
interface program (PartL).
- Criterion
1: Checks CO2 emission for the actual building (BER) against the
target emission rate (TER).
- Criterion
2: Fabric U values – checks the fabric U values are better than the
design limits for area weighted and individual values, Air permeability –
checks whether the specified air permeability is no greater than the worst
acceptable standard, Building services – checks whether the building services
standards such as boiler efficiency and controls are acceptable.
- Criterion
3: contains information about whether the solar gains limit is
exceeded in each of the zones where the solar gains check is applicable.
- Criterion
4: states whether the performance of the building as built is
consistent with the BER. Compliance is not checked by the tool for this
criterion. (This is not included for Scottish Building Regulations.)
- Criterion
5: covers the provision of information about the building.
Compliance is not checked by the tool for this criterion. (This is not included
for Scottish Building Regulations.)
- Technical
Data Sheet (Actual Vs. Notional Building): This section displays
some information about the overall energy performance of the building (actual
and notional) and some specific information on the HVAC systems in the building
(actual and notional). It also lists some general information, such as the
weather location of the building and the percentages of total building floor
area occupied by the different activity types.
- Key
Features: highlights any items in the building fabric definitions
whose specification is better than typically expected values.

Energy Report
|
An Energy report document is automatically produced
by SBEM. The energy report document has been designed as a complete summary of
the energy performance for the project. The document consists of the following
sections.
- Whole building
carbon dioxide performance – summary of the CO2 emission rate for the notional
building, along with the target emission rate (TER) and the actual building
emissions rate (BER).
- Building energy by
end use – provides a graph detailing the annual breakdown of the energy
consumed by each of the building services.
- Building monthly
energy by end use – provides a graph detailing the monthly breakdown of the
energy consumed by each of the building services.
- Building systems
energy – provides a monthly breakdown of the energy consumption of each of the
building services along with the annual totals.

Data Reflection Report (Actual)
|
A Data reflection report for the actual building
is automatically produced by SBEM. This report contains all the data that SBEM
uses to calculate the energy performance of the actual building along with some
general details about the building. The document consists of the following
sections.
- General details
- Building fabric
details
- All systems other
than HVAC (DHW, PVC, SES, CHP)
- HVAC system
(repeated for each HVAC system)
- Rooms in this HVAC
system
- Surface data in this
room

Data Reflection Report (Notional)
|
A Data reflection report for the notional building
is automatically produced by SBEM. This report contains all the data that SBEM
uses to calculate the energy performance of the notional building along with
some general details about the building. The document consists of the following
sections.
- General details
- Building fabric
details
- All systems other
than HVAC (DHW, PVC, SES, CHP)
- HVAC system
(repeated for each HVAC system)
- Rooms in this HVAC
system
- Surface data in this
room
