Energy retrofit technology is proposed for achieving continuous and efficient energy utilization in modern educational facilities. To improve the accuracy of diagnosis rather than improving numerical analysis, building performance evaluation exterior walls windows was conducted using on-site measuring equipment. The target had a substandard domestic performance; therefore, improvement measures were required to use efficiently. We evaluated consumption through analysis program DesignBuilder. efficiency economic benefits technologies evaluated, with seven selected categorized into passive, active, renewable. Efficient included PV panel, High-efficiency HVAC system, Airtight film, LED lights. 8 packages formulated, considering savings, viability, thermal comfort improvements. Among these, energy-saving package, package incorporating all technologies, economically beneficial conservation while benefits, passive efficient. found effective warm demonstrated significant cold conditions. Considering nature building, comprehensive deemed most suitable, offering enhancements, preservation aspects. With payback period 4 years 41.4% saving, it optimal choice building.

In recent times, the rise of urbanization, industrialization, population growth, food security, and COVID-19 pandemic have led to an increased demand for indoor spaces with efficient air conditioning systems. As a result, there is growing interest in creating more complex HVAC systems improve spaces. Building information modeling (BIM) offers numerous benefits industry, such as clash detection, budget time reductions, efficiency. However, its implementation currently hindered by various challenges. This research aims identify major barriers BIM industry Turkey, using questionnaire survey 224 domain experts working 42 different companies across fields industry. The study utilized several statistical analyses categorize prioritize most critical barriers, including reliability tests, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory (CFA), Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) test, Bartlett’s ranking factors (IRI). results indicate that “Deficiencies Infrastructure Lack Qualified Personnel (DIP)” group constituted significant barrier, followed “Lack Documentation Specifications (LDS)”, Case Studies Project Drawings (DCP)”, Motivation Resistance (LMR)”. Moreover, our revealed 60% participants’ allocate less than 40% their budgets technological infrastructure, which hinders adoption BIM. To promote sector, we recommend enhancing personnel capacity building, improving skills knowledge about BIM, promoting guidelines, providing free access documentation practitioners.
