HERO Software training

NatHERS accredited software

This software modelling course takes participants on a step-by-step journey of modelling a complex residential dwelling from start to finish.

This course is suitable to achieve the nationally recognised qualifications.

  • CPPHES4004 – Conduct thermal performance assessments of residential buildings.
  • CPPHES5001 – Conduct thermal performance assessments of complex residential buildings.

Completion of these two units also allows existing assessors to use HERO as an accredited tool.

Participants will learn how to apply software tool functions and modelling methods suitable for complex building types, construction methods and materials as well as running simulations to determine if the potential thermal performance of the complex dwelling complies with regulatory requirements.

The Hero Complex modelling training goes deeper into the latest version of Hero. It covers, but is not limited to split zones, elements & modelling on a complex residential dwelling.

At the successful completion of this course the Hero team will give you a bonus of $330 Hero Certificate Credits

Prerequisites?

The entry requirements for this course.

Participants must:

  • Have successfully completed the HERO’s Free Online Training Course – HERO 101

Advanced skills?

Education In Building has tailored this Customised training course where participants focus on developing and refining advanced skills and practical knowledge through extensive carefully chosen training and exercises which the participants can go through at their own pace.

The HERO Complex modelling training goes deeper into the latest version of HERO. It covers, but is not limited to split zones, elements & modelling on a complex residential dwelling.

The main objective of this course is to assist assessors understand HERO and energy rating in greater detail than were taught in the HERO introductory  course.

The outcome is a greater retention of knowledge and skills that can easily be transferred back in the work place.

Key principles

Key modelling includes:

  • Thermal performance of a variety of building materials
  • Thermal performance ratings
  • Requirements for modelling complex buildings and non-standard materials
  • Involved complex levels, built shading devises and void arrangements
  • Applying software tool functions and modelling methods suitable for complex building types, construction methods and materials
  • Run simulation to determine if the potential thermal performance of the building complies with regulatory requirements.
