Hi.
I just got an idea for a new Dietrichs software. Now we have Dietrichs Cad/Cam software with PlanCad and there is the Dietrichs Static software (very good idea - I hope it will develop to a truly 3D static software, with possibilities to calculate also steel and concrete - in 3D).
Next to develop could be a software that can make an more or less automatic calculation and documentation of U-values for the different structures and the total energy / heatloss calculation for the building, that is required present. This calculation is then based on the actual 3D model and based on the actual structures, amount of wood, amount of insulation etc. The user of course have to define - perhaps in the Dietrichs software - the lambda values for insulation, windows etc. - and these values could also be in the "Dietrichs Energy" software in predefined materials.
