Kadi With the rapid growth of major cities, sustainability in construction has become a fundamental aspect of modern building development, particularly in high-rise residential buildings which are increasingly important in urban expansion. This research aims to analyze how to model energy efficiency improvement criteria in high-rise buildings through a case study of a residential tower using the Revit software. The study begins by developing a comprehensive framework for assessing the environmental, social, and economic impacts of high-rise residential buildings, with a specific focus on energy efficiency as a key criterion in sustainability evaluation. By analyzing data obtained from Revit modeling, the research explores how modeling tools can be utilized to improve building design and enhance energy efficiency. The methodology includes a bibliometric content analysis to review relevant studies and leverage current sustainability assessment frameworks. These principles are applied to a real-life residential tower case study to illustrate the positive impact of improving energy efficiency on the tower's environmental performance. The results indicate that applying energy efficiency criteria using Revit can lead to significant reductions in energy consumption, decreased carbon emissions, and enhanced resource management in residential buildings. Additionally, these criteria contribute to the overall environmental, social, and economic benefits of high-rise buildings. The research concludes with recommendations on how to effectively integrate sustainability criteria into the design of residential towers, emphasizing the importance of using advanced modeling tools like Revit to achieve sustainable and effective outcomes in the construction field.   2024 2024 01 11 10.54216/IJBES.090101 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/22/show/3211
