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 1, Graz, 20-22 September 2023, pp. 263–272
summary In this article, we examine two ways of establishing direct links between different digital tools, based on two plugins developed as part of a larger research. The objective of the research is to explore alternative ways of exchanging data by the means of free and direct data flows. The research methodology consists of linking theory and practice. Firstly, it consists of studying the current state of interoperability in AEC through literature review, to define the theoretical frame. It focuses on the particular use-case of interoperability between design actors (architects), and fabrication actors (suppliers). Secondly, as a practical application, it studies the development of two plugins. Both plugins establish design-to-fabrication workflows with the means of direct data flows, based on open-source solutions. The aim of this paper is to compare the primary results of the two plugins, currently under development. The comparison addresses both practice-related and technical aspects. This assessment analyses different interoperability needs and the efficiency of the developed tools as a solution to the initial problem of interoperability. The results provide guidance for future developments and give suggestions for possible improvements. By providing new protocols for data exchange, this research uses software development as a tool to target the initial research problem.

summary The need has been established for a computer based decision support tool to use during the conceptual stages of architectural design. The main functions are to check design compliance with the requirements of local planning authorities; characteristics evaluated will include building size, height, plot ratios, circulation and accessibility, and the preservation of natural features on site. This tool is being developed to operate under AutoCAD environment; the construction industry standard computer aided design software, following standard layering convention, integrated command lines, and pull-down menus. In addition to the common graphical output; i.c. plans, elevations and three dimensional models, it will generate textual analysis in report format to use as part of the Environmental Impact Analysis of proposed development. The tool's functions will be based upon the result of two types of field studies. First, interviews and questionnaires will be carried out with architects and planners of both private and public sectors. These will cover issues related to the performance of Computer Aided Architectural Design applications with regard to the evaluation of design schematics, and decision-making for the production of data for environmental statements. Second, field observation and participation will be carried out to observe decision-makers behaviour during assessment of building design proposals. A prototype is currently under development and will be tested against the expectations of the tool designer, Ashraf Ismail, and a team of professionals to be involved in the field studies. A critical analysis of the prototype design methodology and the study findings will be documented in the research thesis to be presented in June 1995.

summary One of my tasks while working for Arup in Los Angeles was to teach engineers how to design and communicate using the same tools as architects. As increasing numbers of clients provided us with virtual massing and conceptual models to work from, my colleagues began to acknowledge the need to develop engineering solutions within these same virtual environments. So, my challenge was to not only utilize 3D modeling for visualization but also for design, analysis and production.

title SHAPING OF STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS OF HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS
source Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference of Mathematics & Design, Special Edition of the Journal of Mathematics & Design, Volume 4, No.1, pp. 341-350.
summary Design of an efficient and suitably rigid support structure of a tall building is constantly a challenge for architects and engineers. Recently this challenge is enormously increased by the safety requirements conditioned by numerous emergency reasons. Among others one should mention here about effects of fire or a terrorist attack. The complex forms of structural systems have to be examined in many ways. Comprehensive analyses of these systems are carried out by application of suitable numerical models of these systems. The paper contains examples of shapes of structural systems proposed by the author together with definitions of their numerical models prepared in the programming language Formian.

summary Technological advances have revolutionized our perception of human interactions in architectural spaces. In this study, EEG for brainwave analysis, LiDAR for spatial scanning, and ESP32 UWB for position detection were integrated into Unity3D and analyzed using the ChatGPT API. Our goal was to enhance the human experience by visualizing real-time positions, emotions, and reactions in architectural environments. The project started with 3D scanning to create a digital twin model in Unity3D, which was transformed into a virtual space with a 5x5 grid to capture EEG data. The data was analyzed using the Wolfram Mathematica API and a ranking algorithm, complemented by the ChatGPT API, fine-tuned with the SEED dataset for comprehensive emotion recognition. The core feature of the system was heat maps for visualizing emotional responses, using Unity3D's dynamic particle system for a more immersive and three-dimensional representation. This advanced approach provides architects and designers with deeper insight into user-centered space design. In summary, our integrated system demonstrates significant potential for understanding and enhancing the user experience in architectural spaces by providing insight into the impact of design elements on emotional states. It's a step forward in intelligent building and urban design that focuses on human well-being and satisfaction.

summary Traditional pre-design investigation includes conceptual studies, site analysis, and programming processes to analyze the site and design for users. Instead, designers and architects should consider users' ideas and their actual usage of space, which are recorded and reflected on the social media platform. To introduce more citizens' voices in the design and learn more about people's expression of Detroit city and its housing, we propose to involve the machine learning analysis in the earlier stage of the housing project using users' reflections from social media to support the conceptual design. This paper introduces a novel design framework that deals with the lacking public programs in Detroit using an online data clustering platform and demonstrates a conceptual open-source community housing design according to related findings. This framework incorporates data collection from the Twitter platform, implementation of clustering for user-oriented programs, and design applications based on the findings. Our research demonstrates an efficient and flexible approach to the open-source community housing project.

title Mortise and Tenon Beam-to-Beam Joints Solver for Discrete Timber Structures: A structural performance-driven tool based on finite element analysis
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2024.1.157
source Kontovourkis, O, Phocas, MC and Wurzer, G (eds.), Data-Driven Intelligence - Proceedings of the 42nd Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2024), Nicosia, 11-13 September 2024, Volume 1, pp. 157–166
summary Timber, as a building material with carbon sequestration ability, has significant potential in promoting sustainable development goals. Advancements in parametric design and robotic fabrication are revitalizing traditional timber craftsmanship, leading to a new era of non-standardized design a mass customization. Modern timber structure construction faces key challenges, including analyzing traditional mortise and tenon joints' structural performance and seamlessly integrating parametric designs into robotic workflows. Achieving effective modeling for these joints requires a specialized, intelligent toolkit that spans the entire design-to-fabrication process, tailored for robotic fabrication. The study focuses on the "Mortise and Tenon Beam-to-Beam" technique, combining traditional methods with advanced technology through the FUROBOT-based "Mortise and Tenon Beam-to-Beam Joints Solver." This innovative toolkit, applied in designing and constructing a timber pavilion, enables large-scale, flexible customization in timber structures. The research begins with a detailed description of the generation of parametric joints. Following this, to enhance joint performance, finite element analysis is conducted in Abaqus, focusing on the anisotropic nature of wood joints. This analysis feedback is used in conjunction with the solver to compare multiple solutions and obtain the best high-performance joint solution. Subsequently, robot tool path generation and trajectory optimization are undertaken, considering the constructability of the wood. In the practical application phase, a timber pavilion spanning 682 square meters and standing 6 meters tall, constructed from 603 glued wood components, was erected. The empirical demonstration of the "Mortise and Tenon Beam-to-Beam Joints Solver" process verified its effectiveness and efficiency in enabling architects to design high-performance joints and implement robotic fabrication workflows. The total processing time for the 603 glued timber components was 30 days, marking a 1/3 reduction in time compared to traditional timber structure workflows. This achievement underscores the toolkit's role as a driving force in advancing non-standardized design and promoting large-scale, flexible customization in timber structure construction.

summary Timber gridshell is an efficient structural system. However, the feature of double curved surface result in limitation of practical application of timber gridshell. Digital technology provides an opportunity to break this limitation and achieve a lightweight free-form gridshell. In the practice of Venue B for 2018 West Bund World AI Conference, architects and structural engineers cooperated to explore innovative design of lightweight steel-timber composite gridshell with the help of digital tools. Setting digital technology as support and restrains of the project as motivation, the design tried to achieve the realization of material, structure, construction and spatial expression. The digital design and construction process will be discussed from four aspects, including form-finding of gridshell surface, steel-timber composite design, digital detailed design and model-based fabrication and construction. We focuses on the use of digital tools in this process, as well as the role of the design subject.

title Temporary Housing Design and Planning Software for Disaster Relief Decision Support System
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2007.x.k9q

summary There is a continuous and urgent need for disaster relief in Thailand and countries suffering from floods and tsunami impact. Based on this issue, design and planning software for temporary housing project has been developed, as well as the process and guideline for implementation. This paper describes a unique coupling of interactive 3D virtual environment with parametric designing in order to manage disaster relief project more efficiently. Architects and planners can use the functionality of software on both design simulation and project evaluation aspects. We need to provide correct information to help people making decision when they are in disaster. So the disaster relief decision support system must offer proper information of crisis management focused on people, place, and process. One of the main features of software is the relationship modeling of essential factors such as number of people, houses, budget, time, and space. This automatic temporary houses generation and space planning is simulated for land use and layout plan design with cost estimation analysis. The system components were proposed to a new disaster relief system in alternative approach. Using community-based development will not cost budget but required people participation. Our software’s space coordination will start and centered from available space in school or temple with sufficient infrastructure. After essential factors are inputted, appropriated number of temporary houses, public facilities, and management guideline will be generated to support further planning decision. Our core system was developed on Java and Swing Technology, empowered by real-time 3D rendering CAD engine. In addition, “Virtools” as our Authoring Tools was applied to improve design interaction and explore rapid software prototyping. At the end, we discuss the comparison between real situations in Thailand and appropriate design standardization, which should be reconsidered how to manage crisis with the limitation of time and budget from government.

title Improving Child Safety in Residential Buildings via Architectural Design and Technology Integration
source Vienna University of Technology; Building Science & Technology
summary This work intends to create design guidelines based on the classification of design elements in residential buildings according to risk levels. It suggests the inclusion of safety aspects in children’s immediate environment by better design solutions and technologies which can help to prevent home accidents that mainly affect children aged between 0 and 4 years. The guidelines could help to create new building and design standards for architects and the building industry. They are based on research, conducted mainly in the European Union and the United States of America, into regulations and programs focusing on the prevention of home accidents. This work may be of benefit to parents, manufacturers, the building industry, architects and governments. Parents may benefit, obviously, because they get information on how to decrease the number of hazards within their children’s environment. It may help manufacturers improve their safety standards. Consumers may choose from a range of safer products. It may prompt the building industry to create safer designs and products thus avoiding liability claims. It may inspire architects to a more safety-oriented design. Finally governments could reduce health costs – in Austria alone, for example, more than € 3.4 billion a year are spent on home and leisure accidents.

title Building Intelligence Through Generative Design - Structural analysis and optimisation informed by material performance
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2019.1.371
source M. Haeusler, M. A. Schnabel, T. Fukuda (eds.), Intelligent & Informed - Proceedings of the 24th CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand, 15-18 April 2019, pp. 371-380
summary Generative design (GD) is the process of defining high-level goals and constraints and then using computation to automatically explore a range of solutions that meet the desired requirements. Generative processes are intelligent ways to fast-track early design stages. The outcomes are analyzed simultaneously to inform decisions for architects and engineers. Whilst material properties have been defined as a driving agent within generative systems to calculate structure, material performance or structural capacity are not linked with early decision-making. In response, this paper sets a constrained approach upon traditional and non-traditional materials to validate the feasibility of structures. A GD tool is developed within Grasshopper using C-sharp, Karamaba3D, Galapagos and various engineering formulas. The result is a script, which prioritizes the structural qualities of material as a driving factor within generative systems and facilitates communication across different expertise.

summary Gaming and visualisation software has a history of developing economical and creative methods to deal with hardware limitations. Traditionally the visual representation of gaming has been a poor offspring of high-end architectural visualisation. In a twist of irony, the paper proposes that game production software leads the way into a new era of physical digital ornament. The toolbox of the rendering engine evolved rapidly between 1974-85 and it is still today 20 years later the main component of all visualisation programs. The development of the bump map is of particular interest; its evolution into a physical displacement map provides untold opportunities in the appropriation of the 2D image to a physical artifact. Contemporary Architects in tandem have been mapping to the façade a new era of complex three-dimensional sculptural representation. The Architect, Designer and Artist now have the opportunity to appropriate the image map and use advanced visualisation technologies in the application of digital ornament.

summary What do young architects need to know about computer graphics? What "immutable and eternal" models will allow them to perform their best as professional architects? At one time all computer users were computer programmers and the answer was thus rooted in programming expertise, but the era of personally developed software is largely past. An alternative more vocational approach would stress courses in the use of specific programs, but it is hard to imagine a more mutable "object of knowledge" than the practical details of computing in the late twentieth century. In fact, our students are deluged with information: commands, vocabulary, options, sales hyperbole, and "do this, it works" cookbooks. As educators, we face the challenge of identifying that which is "immutable and eternal", and presenting it to our students (and trying to focus their attention on it).

title Mental Models
source Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press
summary As psychological representations of real, hypothetical, or imaginary situations, mental models were first postulated by the Scottish psychologist Kenneth Craik (1943), who wrote that the mind constructs "small-scale models" of reality to anticipate events, to reason, and to underlie . The models are constructed in working memory as a result of perception, the comprehension of discourse, or imagination (see 1982; Johnson-Laird 1983). A crucial feature is that their structure corresponds to the structure of what they represent. Mental models are accordingly akin to architects' models of buildings and to chemists' models of complex molecules.

summary In this chapter we hope to provide the reader with an impression of the objective, framework and possibilities of 3RM in the construction industry. In Dutch, 3RM stands for 'Ruimtelijk Relationeel Referentie Model' (Spatial Relational Reference Model). The model could begin to be used as an information-bearer in the building industry within which the specific trade information for each of the building participants could be interrelated, including drafting symbolism, building costs, physical qualities and building regulations. In this way, the model can be used as a means to a more efficient running of the building process and enabling the integration of information, at project level, provided by various building participants. The project should be defined in the same way as is a typical architectural project, whereby the actual development as well as the project management is carried out by architects. For the time being, development is limited to integral use at the design stage, but it also offers sufficient expansion possibilities to be able to function as a new communications model throughout the complete building process. We shall first provide information as to the origin, the objective and the execution of the project. Thereafter, we shall attempt to state the theoretical information problem within the building industry and the solution to this offered through 3RM. Finally, we shall report upon the results of the first phase of the 3RM project.

summary The healthcare building design process involves complex decision-making, considering both normative restrictions and other essential program qualities. To address this challenge, a BIM framework is proposed, providing multi-criteria evaluations for architects at various design stages. The framework uses semantic modules to measure the BIM model and compare results with reference goals, including restrictive norms. Employing Design Science Research, existing evaluation modules were integrated. The current implementation includes normative checks, indoor environmental quality, and spatial syntax indicators analysis. The contribution lies in offering a tool that optimizes the healthcare building design process by providing visual feedback for the users, who are designers and regulatory bodies.

summary This paper presents an overview of the current developments in people flow analysis in Buro Happold’s analytical group SMART Solutions. The role of people flow analysis has become an established one, within many leading consultancy firms with their own specialist groups supporting the architects and planners in the design of buildings and urban spaces. This paper proposes that the key development in the progression of this work is a due to a change in emphasis, away from a passive analysis task where its key role is to validate assumptions of flow and alleviate areas of high concern to using the process as a design instigator/driver. The new paradigm emerging, involves calculating people flow at the conceptual stage of a project in collaboration with the respective architectural firm, and using this information as a primary design input. This paper describes and analyses the two objectives set out by Buro Happold’s SMART group in order to improve the process of design; firstly to make it more prominent in the design environment and secondly to see if it has the potential to work as a design driver. These objectives create a design methodology defined by people flow and suggest value in innovating and conceiving of robust simple methods of improving designs.

summary When an idea hits upon architect's mind suddenly, that idea may be memorized on a piece of paper like as napkin of a restaurant, reverse face of pamphlet etc. For conceptual design, free-form drawing with pencil and paper can efficiently delineate architect's thinking. In environmental design such as urban developing, architects usually describe their initial conception on 2D sketch. Our aim is to construct the Sketch-VRML system mixing non-photo realistic free-form 2D sketch and usual 3D computer graphics for conceptual design applying it to environmental design. It is our principle that we can use CG lightly and naturally like 'croquis' with no special hardware needed but just pencil and paper. From free-form 2D sketch on paper, the Sketch-VRML system builds it up to 3D model 'as is' resembling free hand drawing and it can be revolved and extruded. 3DCG component already produced will be useful material for design making as well as sketches. Therefore, we would like to use these materials as conception making resource with database.
