Ladybug Developer Introduces Exclusive New Training Series
Chris Mackey is a building scientist, designer and recent graduate of MIT's Building Technology program and will present a series of five Performance Workshops. His completed thesis involved the development of software to produce high-resolution thermal comfort maps of buildings off of EnergyPlus results as well as a new suite of spatial thermal comfort metrics that mirror those currently used to quantify daylight. Chris is a developer of the Ladybug and Honeybee environmental analysis plugins for the Rhino3D Grasshopper3D platform and is currently building a link to macro-scale climate modeling engines and data sets.

Ladybug Climate Analysis Workshop
An essential crash course on outdoor comfort + climate analysis and visualization with Ladybug. This would be geared towards both new users, covering must-know fundamentals, and experienced users to learn about the new component for Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) which has opened the door for evaluating comfort in a lot of cases that we previously could not evaluate. More details to follow.
Sep 1
Ladybug Facade + Shade Design Workshop
This presentation provides a set of methods and guidelines for designing facades and shading systems with Ladybug. Practice-informed methods will be covered that have become refined through project work and will be directly applicable to your own projects. The inferred material teaches new and experienced users structured methods for running radiation studies, direct sun and glare studies, and view studies. More details to follow.
Sep 8
Honeybee Energy + Indoor Comfort Modeling Workshop
This presentation addresses a significant upgrade which switches from writing out EnergyPlus files to using the OpenStudio API. This allows easy generation of models with detailed HVAC systems among a few other benefits. Building on past presentations, this workshop has been further refined by spending less time teaching model set up and more time sharing unique attributes of a parametric interface like Grasshopper and a 3D visualization interface of Rhino to enhance user experience and effectiveness. More details to follow.
Sep 15
Honeybee Dynamo + Daylight Workshop
The workshop will begin with a concise overview of the Honeybee front-end. A deeper exploration of the Honeybee back-end will showcase how it has transformed into a more robust Honeybee Daylight for Dynamo. We will combine a daylight tutorial with the presentation of Ladybug + Honeybee for Dynamo as a good way of teaching new users about daylight modeling while updating experienced users on the capabilities of the Dynamo interface. More details to follow.
Sep 22
Honeybee THERM + WINDOW Workshop
The workshop will unveil a new connection from Honeybee to LBNL THERM and WINDOW. This workshop is for intermediate and advanced users. The workflow provides extended capabilities to project workflows in the workplace. More details to follow.
