Software


Building Economic Analysis Software

The BEES (Building for Environmental and Economic Sustainability) software brings to your fingertips a powerful technique for selecting cost-effective, environmentally-preferable building products.

BridgeLCC is user-friendly life-cycle costing software developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help bridge engineers assess the cost effectiveness of new, alternative construction materials.

The BLCC (Building Life-Cycle Cost) programs are developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology to provide computational support for the economic analysis of capital investments in buildings.

 

Building Materials Research Software

Cement Hydration and Degradation Modeling Software
These models have come out of the HYPERCON: Prediction and Optimization of Concrete Performance research program and its predecessors.

Building Environment and Performance Software

MOIST
User-friendly, personal computer program that predicts the one-dimensional transfer of heat and moisture.  MOIST 3 is designed to run on any IBM-compatible personal computer having a Microsoft Windows operating system.

EVAP-COND
Simulation models for a finned-tube evaporator and condenser.

CONTAM W
Multizone indoor air quality and ventilation analysis computer program designed to help you predict: Airflows, Contaminant Concentrations, and Personal exposure.

CYCLE_D
Vapor Compression Cycle Design Program.

CIS/2 to VRML Translator
Translates a CIS/2 (CIMsteel Integration Standards) file into a 3D interactive model of a steel structure in the form of a Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) file that can be viewed in a web browser.

REFLEAK
Leak/Recharge Simulation Program for Refrigerant Mixtures.
