As of the 2019.f version, CYPE Cost Estimatorcontemplates the climate and seismic data that affects the budget of the building. These factors are the following:
- Thermal conditions
The outdoor temperature affect the design and parameters of the envelope and thermal installations of the building, especially the cost of the insulations and the exterior carpentry. - Wind intensity
The dynamic pressure of the wind conditions the design, parameters and cost of the structure and exterior carpentry. - Wind exposure grade
Affects the cost of the structure and exterior carpentry, especially in buildings located near cliffs, the seaside and rural areas without obstacles, amongst others. - Seismic risk
Seismic action influence the design of the foundation and the structure, and therefore, affect the final cost of the building.
