Abstract: This paper centers around building data related to the energy consumption and water consumption by analytical estimation which displays a breakdown of residential power vitality and water utilization information, identifying the elements of apartment buildings which are related to electricity and water use and demonstrate energy consumption forecast based on the proposed case study. In order to verify the patterns of electricity and water consumption in relation with apartment buildings, I will be collecting data from an apartment building. Weather history data, relative humidity and building information such as floor number, type of apartment units, and total area of each apartment unit will also be collected in order to analyze their impact on the consumption of energy and water in the apartment building. By conduction this analysis, the relationship between building information factors and energy consumption will be determined and can be essential for establishing a low energy consumption style apartment as well as establishing a real estate policy on housing pricing based on energy and water consumption. With the expense of energy and water consumption expanding (both financially and biologically), property holders need to discover approaches to check utilization and how the building factors affect consumption.
Keywords: energy consumption; water consumption; apartment building; building; information factors.
