SOFTWARE
BIM based building environmental assessment
Discover SURAP - a Building Information Modeling (BIM) based software that simplifies sustainability assessment and optimization for construction projects. The software offers integrated resource efficiency assessment beyond traditional LCA.
For whom is SURAP suitable?
SURAP - Sustainable Resource Application
Architecture / planning offices
For planners who want to take building environmental assessment and optimization into their own hands.
Sustainability consulting / research
For experts, teachers and researchers who consider the entire life cycle and think about resource efficiency.
Real estate management/municipal real estate offices
For decision makers who want to get the environmental performance of their buildings faster, understand it better, and communicate it more easily.
WHY SURAP?
Your advantages with SURAP
Climate protection and resource efficiency
SURAP uses, in addition to conventional LCA indicators, an innovative research-based approach to consider resource footprints (material, energy and water) and climate footprint.
Real time results
The user-friendly operation, real-time visualization and clear comparison of variants allow for quick calculations of building footprints.
Efficient
Save time on building environmental assessment. Few clicks per assessment replace time-consuming data transfer and spreadsheet.
ABOUT US
Background
The idea behind the Sustainable Resource Application (SURAP) originated at the Center for Environmental System Research (CESR) at the University of Kassel. The institute focuses on problem analyses and solution scenarios for climate change and sustainable resource use. The development of SURAP builds on previous research to determine resource efficiency within life cycle analysis (LCA) and transfers this to the planning practice of construction.
