title	INTERCOM - A platform for collaborative design processes
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.2.173

summary	The INTERCOM project propounds a cloud-based collaboration platform for digital planning processes in architecture. The concept is based on an openBIM approach and ensures open access for all partners involved. At its core it provides IFC-based and model-related online tools for planning, communication and collaboration. The interaction with the model and the exchange with other project partners takes place in real-time via a model-related chat and BCF exports. In addition, the integration of e-learning modules (e.g. video tutorials, wikis, project documents) encourages problem solving through further education. Especially the integration of communication and collaboration tools is supposed to enhance the decision making throughout the design process and become a key factor for a successful and coordinated BIM process. Primarily INTERCOM has been developed as a prototype for teaching BIM in interdisciplinary teams. Subsequently, the application can also be adopted for professional practice. The paper evaluates previous experiences from BIM cloud teaching and discusses the conception and development of the proposed collaborative platform.

summary	Data-driven Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology has brought new tools to efficiently deal with the tension between the real and the virtual environments in the field of Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation (AECO). For historic assets, BIM represents a paradigm shift, enabling better decision-making about preventive maintenance, heritage management, and interpretation. The potential application of the Historic-BIM is creating a digital twin of the asset. This paper deals with the concept of a virtual environment for the consolidation and dissemination of heritage information. Here we show the process of creating interactive virtual environments for the Pampulha Modern Ensemble designed by Oscar Niemeyer in the 1940s, and the workflow to their dissemination in an AR visualization APP. Our results demonstrate the APP feasibility to the Pampulha's building interpretation.

summary	The newest information and communication technologies bring a major shift to the AEC sector and foster it towards the new digital globalized economy. The last decades witnessed many changes in the AEC industry brought in by digital tools and by the adoption of Building Information Modeling/Management (BIM). The changes had influenced the common practices of design, construction and management, they have also fostered new digital practices into AEC. Innovative digital project management becomes a base element of an effective BIM project management. The project teams' collective competencies and skills contribute to design development and value engineering of the project. In this context, four approaches: BIM adoption, agile BIM, 4D digital decision-making, qualitative requirements to BIM, which are resulting from the research are presented in this article whose objective is to assist and facilitate the integration of digital in AEC specific professional practices.

title	Integration of BIM and Algorithmic Design logics through data exchange between Grasshopper plugin and Revit and Archicad software
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 470-477
summary	The Algorithmic Design's integration with BIM (Building Information Modeling), allows greater potential for formal design innovation, tasks automation, greater geometry control, data assignment, and project documentation throughout its life cycle. This paper aims to assist in this integration, analyzing some plugins for conversion from Grasshopper to Archicad and Revit. Based on a parameterized social housing model, interoperability tests were carried out to compare different workflows and discuss some strategies and logics of algorithmic modeling to facilitate the communication between Grasshopper and BIM.

title	Holistic Building Design - An integrated building design methodology based on systems thinking for reaching sustainability
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.1.505
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 505-514
summary	This paper introduces a new perspective on methodological requirements in building design related to questions of sustainability, where stakeholders ought to look at design in an integrated way when economy, society, and technical components are embedded in an ecological holistic perspective. To bind these different aspects together and face complexity, while the goal is to reach sustainability, Holistic Building Design (HBD) is drawn on existing concepts of systems thinking (ST), integrated design processes (IDP), and application of innovative technologies through building information modeling (BIM). The main aim of this approach is to involve deeper in all aspects of sustainable building design. The methodology is introduced and empirically practiced in a master's level course, and a general overview besides the first results of this on-going process are presented in this paper. It is observed that the HBD framework could significantly influence the understanding of the design process and enhancing it by iterative decision-making and turning the focus on the early design stage.

title	Generative Design for a Sustainable Urban Morphology
source	Hybrid Spaces of the Metaverse - Architecture in the Age of the Metaverse: Opportunities and Potentials [10th ASCAAD Conference Proceedings] Debbieh (Lebanon) [Virtual Conference] 12-13 October 2022, pp. 434-449
summary	The present work concerns the applications of generative design for sustainable urban fabric. This represents an iterative process that involves an algorithm for the generation of solar envelopes to satisfy solar and density constraints. We propose in this paper to explore a meta-universe of human-machine interaction. It aims to design urban forms that offer solar access. This being to minimize heating energy expenditure and provide solar well-being. We propose to study the impact of the solar strategy of building morphosis on energy exposure. It consists of determining the layout and shape of the constructions based on the shading cut-off time. This is a period of desirable solar access. We propose to define it as a balance between the solar irradiation received in winter and that received in summer. We rely on the concept of the solar envelope defined since the 1970s by Knowles and its many derivatives (Koubaa Turki & al., 2020). We propose a parametric model to generate solar envelopes at the scale of an urban block. The generative design makes it possible to create a digital model of the different density solutions by varying the solar access duration. The virtual environment created allows exploring urban morphologies resilient both to urban densification and better use of the context’s resources. The seasonal energy balance, between overexposure in summer and access to the sun in winter, allows reaching high energy and environmental efficiency of the buildings. We have developed an algorithm on Dynamo for the generation of the solar envelope by shading exchange. The program makes it possible to detect the boundaries of the parcels imported from Revit, establish the layout of the building, and generate the solar envelopes for each variation of the shading cut-off time. It also calculates the FAR1 and the FSI2 from the variation of the shading cut-off time for each parcel of the island. We compare the solutions generated according to the urban density coefficients and the solar access duration. Once the optimal solution has been determined, we export the results back into Revit environment to complete the BIM modelling for solar study. This article proposes a method for designing buildings and neighbourhoods in a virtual environment. The latter acts upstream of the design process and can be extended to the different phases of the building life cycle: detailed design, construction, and use.

title	Multi-User and Web-based Parametric Modeling with Multiple Visual Programming Tools
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.1.019
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 19-28
summary	This paper presents a new framework for Web-based parametric modeling for design collaboration, allowing multiple users to work on the shared Web-based model in the process of building design and modeling, performance simulation, and optimization. The Web-based model viewer displays a shared model. Two visual programming tools: Grasshopper and Dynamo, are used on users' local computers connected to the Web. Two working prototypes of modeling methods were developed to control and modify building models on the Web. Two case studies with three tests each were conducted on a simplified residential building model. In Case Study 1, two simulated users tested the parametric capabilities on transformations including scaling, translation, and rotation of the shared Web-based model using Grasshopper and Dynamo. In Case Study 2, two simulated users collaborated on the shared Web-based model through Grasshopper in the process of optimization for different building performance objectives, in terms of daylight, energy use, and roof coverage. Web-based parametric modeling is expected to provide opportunities for collaboration in parametric design and optimization. Findings and technical limitations of the framework are discussed in the paper.

summary	Deep learning is expected to offer new opportunities and a new paradigm for the field of architecture. One such opportunity is teaching neural networks to visually understand architectural elements from the built environment. However, the availability of large training datasets is one of the biggest limitations of neural networks. Also, the vast majority of training data for visual recognition tasks is annotated by humans. In order to resolve this bottleneck, we present a concept of a hybrid system—using both building information modeling (BIM) and hyperrealistic (photorealistic) rendering—to synthesize datasets for training a neural network for building object recognition in photos. For generating our training dataset, BIMrAI, we used an existing BIM model and a corresponding photorealistically rendered model of the same building. We created methods for using renderings to train a deep learning model, trained a generative adversarial network (GAN) model using these methods, and tested the output model on real-world photos. For the specific case study presented in this paper, our results show that a neural network trained with synthetic data (i.e., photorealistic renderings and BIM-based semantic labels) can be used to identify building objects from photos without using photos in the training data. Future work can enhance the presented methods using available BIM models and renderings for more generalized mapping and description of photographed built environments.

title	Modeling of steel and precast concrete components based on BIM systems and their application for the teaching of Architectural Design
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 652-659
summary	This paper addresses the development of parametric components based on BIM (Building Information Modeling) tools and their application for the teaching of architecture and urban designs, in a discipline focused on housing typology. As a didactic and research method, the use of industrialized building technologies in steel and precast concrete for production efficiency and low maintenance is associated with the idea of the studio as a laboratory for verification and experimentation. The system was improved for two years, and provided students with greater constructive control, basic feedback on the budget, and mastery of representation, while they investigated alternative design concepts and new components.

title	Topological Queries and Analysis of School Buildings Based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) Using Parametric Design Tools and Visual Programming to Develop New Building Typologies
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.2.279
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 279-288
summary	School buildings are currently one of the largest portions of planning and building projects in Germany. In order to reflect the continuous developments in school building construction with constantly changing spatial requirements, an approach to analyse, derive and combine patterns of schools is proposed to adapt school typologies accordingly. Therefore, the topology is analysed, concerning interconnection methods, such as adjacency, accessibility, depth, and flow. The geometric analysis of e.g. room sizes or spatial proportions is enhanced by including grouping of rooms, estimated room clusters, or room shapes. Furthermore, text-matching is used to determine e.g. room program fulfilment, or assigning functional room descriptions to predefined room types, revealing huge differences of terms throughout time and architects. First results of the analyses show a relevant correlation between spatial proportion and room types.

title	Modelling Precast Concrete for a Circular Economy in the Built Environment
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2023.2.177

summary	In recent years, there has been a growing interest in adopting circular approaches in the built environment, specifically reusing existing buildings or their components in new projects. To achieve this, drawings, laser scanning, photogrammetry and other techniques are used to capture data on buildings and their materials. Although previous studies have explored scan-to-BIM workflows, automation of 2D drawings to 3D models, and machine learning for identifying building components and materials, a significant gap remains in refining this data into the right level of information required for digital twins, to share information and for digital collaboration in designing for reuse. To address this gap, this paper proposes digital guidelines for reusing precast concrete based on the level of information need (LOIN) standard EN 17412-1:2020 and examines several CAD and BIM modelling strategies. These guidelines can be used to prepare digital templates that become digital twins of existing elements, develop information requirements for use cases, and facilitate data integration and sharing for a circular built environment.

summary	The paper presents a model for decentralizing building information modelling, through implementing its infrastructure using the decentralized web. We discuss the shortcomings of BIM in terms of its infrastructure, with a focus on tracing identities of design authorship in this collective design tool. In parallel we examine the issues with BIM in the cloud and propose a decentralized infrastructure based on the Ethereum blockchain and the Interplanetary filesystem (IPFS). A series of computing nodes, that act as nodes on the Ethereum Blockchain, host disk storage with which they participate in a larger storage pool on the Interplanetary Filesystem. This storage is made available through an API is used by architects and designers creating and editing a building information model that resides on the IPFS decentralised storage. Through this infrastructure central servers are eliminated, and BIM libraries and models can be shared with others in an immutable and transparent manner. As such Architecture practices are able to exploit their intellectual property in novel ways, by making it public on the internet. The infrastructure also allows the decentralised creation of a resilient global pool of data that allows the participation of computation agents in the creation and simulation of BIM models.

title	Gusto: Rationalizing Computational Masonry Design

Online and Global. 24-30 October 2020. edited by M. Yablonina, A. Marcus, S. Doyle, M. del Campo, V. Ago, B. Slocum. 154-159
summary	Gusto 501 is a multi-level Infill Building on the footprint of an old car garage. Surrounded by an overpass and former factories, the restaurant and event spaces take the form of a ‘Hyper garage’ as a nod to its urban context. The interior is punctuated with standard terracotta blocks formed to create an intricate play of shadows during the day and embedded with LEDs to provide atmospheric illumination at night. The client's vision, our narrative, and the program demanded an innovative use of the primal material: terracotta. The scale of the project required the use of 3,700 blocks. Within the array wrapped around a 50ft tall interior volume, each block needed to be formed and sequenced uniquely to maintain structural integrity and interface with building systems, and express the sculptural qualities our team had designed. Standard approaches to the masonry could not achieve the effects our team was striving for - we had to develop our ground-up process to manufacture and install mass-customized masonry. The design process involved an algorithmic approach to a series of cuts and geometric manipulations to the blocks that allowed for near-endless combinations/configurations to create a dynamic interior facade system. Partisans, partnering with a terracotta block manufacturer, a local mason, and a masonry engineer, pursued simplifying production using wire cutter systems. Digital and physical mock-ups were then used to create a robust library of parameterized design criteria that optimized corbelling, grout thickness, weight, and fabrication complexity. Working sets of drawings were automated through a fully integrated BIM model, simplifying and speeding up installation. The challenge of marrying these processes with the physical realities of installation required another level of collaboration that included the masons themselves and the electricians who would eventually combine lighting systems into the sculpted block array.

title	Environmental Performance-based Community Development - A parametric simulation framework for Smart Growth development in the United States
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2020.1.873

summary	Smart Growth is an urban design movement initiated by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States (Smart Growth America, 2019). The regulations of Smart Growth control urban morphologies such as building height, use, position, section configurations, faÃ§ade configurations, and materials, which have an explicit association with energy performances. This research aims to analyze and visualize the impact of Smart Growth developments on environmental performances. This paper presents a parametric modeling and simulation framework for Smart Growth developments that can model the potential community development scenarios, simulate the environmental footprints of each parcel, and visualize the results of modeling and simulation. We implemented and examined the proposed framework through a case study of two Smart Growth regulations: Columbia Unified Development Code (UDC) in Missouri (City of Columbia Missouri, 2017) and Overland Park Downtown Form-based Code (FBC) in Kansas City (City of Overland Park, 2017, 2019). Last, we discuss the implementation results, the limitations of the proposed framework, and the future work. We anticipate that the proposed method can improve stakeholders' understanding of how Smart Growth developments are associated with potential environmental footprints from an expeditious and thorough exploration of what-if scenarios of the multiple development schemes.

title	Towards a Genome for Zero Carbon Retrofit of UK Housing
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2023.2.197
source	Dokonal, W, Hirschberg, U and Wurzer, G (eds.), Digital Design Reconsidered - Proceedings of the 41st Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2023) - Volume 2, Graz, 20-22 September 2023, pp. 197–206
summary	The United Kingdom has some of the worst insulated housing stock in Northern Europe. This is in part due to the age of housing in the UK, with over 90% being built before 1990 [McCrone 2017, Piddington 2020]. Moreover, 85% of current UK housing will still be in use in 2050 by which stage their Government are targeting Net Carbon Zero [Eyre 2019]. Domestic energy use accounts for around 25% of UK carbon emissions. The UK will need to retrofit 20 million dwellings in order to meet this target. If this delivery were evenly spread, it would equate to over 2,000 retrofit completions each day. Government-funded initiatives are stimulating the market, with upwards of 60,000 social housing retrofits planned for 2023, but it is clear that a system must be developed to enable the design and implementation of housing-stock improvement at a large scale.This paper charts the 20-year development of a digital approach to the design for low-carbon domestic retrofit by architects Constructive Thinking Studio Limited and thence documents the emergence of a collaborative approach to retrofit patterns on a National scale. The author has led the Research and Development stream of this practice, developing a Building Information Modelling methodology and integrated Energy Modelling techniques to optimise design for housing retrofit [Georgiadou 2019, Ben 2020], and then inform a growing palette of details and a database of validated solutions [Moorhouse 2013] that can grow and be used to predict options for future projects [D’Angelo 2022]. The data is augmented by monitoring energy and environmental performance, enabling a growing body of knowledge that can be aligned with existing big data to simulate the benefits of nationwide stock improvement. The paper outlines incremental case studies and collaborative methods pivotal in developing this work The proposed outcome of the work is a Retrofit Genome that is available at a national level.

summary	The global request of energy politics and actions against climate change, reiterate the importance of promoting the nearly zero-energy buildings (nZEB), taking into account environmental habitability and comfort; therefore, this type of buildings has to include a process, design, and construction, intelligent. Accordingly, the present research shows a methodology for the design of almost zero-energy housing, by using BIM under an environment of extreme collaboration; evaluating energy consumption and active solar generation. Thus, the proposed methodology allows optimizing the processes related to design time, level of geometric development, and the application and evaluation of sustainability strategies, to achieve nearly zero-energy housing within the city Concepcion Chile.

title	Standardization of Airport Architectural Design Projects BIM-based for Code Checking
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 490-498
summary	This paper addresses the use of BIM for code verification and automatic validation of the Architectural Design of Airports (ADA). In Brazil, the evaluation and approval of ADA are carried out by INFRAERO. Currently, designs are evaluated manually, resulting in errors and long evaluation time. To deal with this problem, a conceptual framework for automated ADA assessment with Code Checking is proposed. The method used was Design Science Research, with the proposal of an artifact. The partial results show the importance of establishing protocols for BIM modeling, based on IFC as an important tool for automated assessment with code checking.
