Abstract This research investigates the potential for enhancing thermal comfort and energy efficiency in Block IV, the Administrative Building at KITSW, Warangal. In light of the increasing prominence of sustainable building practices, evaluating strategies for optimization is imperative. Leveraging Building Information Modelling (BIM) software and advanced sustainability analysis tools, a data-driven approach is employed. The methodology unfolds through a multi-phased process. Initially, a comprehensive 3D model of the building is crafted within Revit software, incorporating data from 2D CAD drawings and detailing materials, dimensions, and layout. Subsequently, employing a cloud-based tool, an exhaustive solar radiation analysis ensues, juxtaposing scenarios with existing and optimal insulation materials. This analysis discerns potential thermal vulnerabilities and scrutinizes solar exposure variations across the year. Further, within the BIM environment, a digital energy model is synthesized to scrutinize the building's energy consumption and daylighting conditions meticulously. This model integrates intricate details of the building's geometry, materials, and operational dynamics. Simulations are executed to pinpoint areas ripe for enhancing energy efficiency. Through systematic analysis of data gleaned from each phase, this research endeavors to uncover strategies for optimizing thermal comfort and energy efficiency in Block IV. The insights garnered are poised to inform tangible improvements in sustainability not only for this particular building but also for analogous educational facilities, thereby contributing to the broader discourse on sustainable building practices.
