| summary |
At the core of any computational system that can support design development, analysis, and
evaluation is a building representation which should be able to represent all the different
components that make up a building, along with the manner in which they come together. In
other words, the representation must be informationally complete and semantically rich. The
paper discusses these two criteria in detail, and briefly reviews other research efforts aimed
at developing building representations for CAAD that attempt to meet them. Our solution to
this problem is then presented. It is aimed primarily at the schematic design phase, the
rationale for which is also stated. Taking the view that buildings are unique assemblies of
discrete, mostly standardized components, our representation is clearly divided into two
components: the Object Database (ODB) which stores detailed information about various
building elements, and the Project Database (PDB) which holds information about how these
elements are assembled to make up a particular building. An ODB may be shared by many
building projects, while the PDB must necessarily be unique to each. The data schemas of
both the PDB and the ODB are described in detail and their computational implementation, to
the extent that it has been completed, is illustrated. |
