Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree Programme – ERASMUS+ 4 European Master in Building Information Modelling BIM A+ Algorithm-aided Information Design: Hybrid Design approach on the edge of Associative Methodologies in AEC RESUMO As últimas três décadas trouxeram um progresso colossal às metodologias de projeto, numa evolução em direção a uma fusão entre os mundos digital e físico que se expande pelo poder da computação e redes digitais. Neste histórico período, surgiram duas gerações de metodologias e ferramentas no contexto do CAD: sistemas de geração Aditivos e sistemas de geração Associativos. Atualmente, projetistas de todo o mundo dedicam-se a novas formas de exploração do projeto. Neste processo emergiram duas metodologias a partir da abordagem de Projeto Associativo – Object-Oriented Design (OOD) e Algorithm-Aided Design (AAD). O objetivo principal deste trabalho é investigar, examinar e explorar os limites de OOD e AAD para a num novo paradigma de projeto, onde as vantagens de ambos os métodos se combinam numa nova metodologia generativa que no presente estudo se design de Algorithm-aided Information Design (AID). A metodologia deste estudo estrutura-se em dois momentos. No primeiro momento, metodologias CAD existentes são investigadas e a estrutura conceptual é extraída com base na análise do estado da arte, em seguida, os dados analisados são sintetizados na proposta do tema central do trabalho. No segundo momento, ferramentas e processos de trabalho são elaborados e examinados na prática para confirmar a proposta do tema. Em conformidade, o conteúdo da investigação é composto por duas partes teóricas e práticas. Na primeira parte teórica, é constituído por uma revisão da literatura e hipóteses para especular sobre a metodologia AID, suas ferramentas, possíveis vantagens e desvantagens. Em seguida, pelo desenvolvimento de casos de estudo realizados de acordo com estágios sequenciais de projeto digital à luz da implementação prática da metodologia AID. Os casos de estudo abordam diferentes aspetos de projeto, tal como a geração de modelos e documentação, automatização de processos de desenho, interoperabilidade, controlo da fabricação, análise e otimização do desempenho do projeto. Finalmente, desenvolve-se um conjunto de projetos que implementam diversos aspetos da metodologia AID. Após esta parte prática, a investigação retorna à teoria onde as informações analíticas são reunidas com base na revisão da literatura, quadro conceptual e relatórios da prática experimental. Associando e analisando todas as fontes investigadas, o estudo apresenta proposta de melhorias da estrutura do AID e suas conclusões. Em resumo, o estudo sintetiza a metodologia AID como parte de um processo de Desenho Híbrido, possibilitando o uso criativo de ferramentas e a elaboração de sistemas de projeto Ágil integrando metodologias aditivas e associativas de Projeto Digital.Em geral, o estudo é baseado no método Ágil e em métodos de desenvolvimento cíclico misto entre prática e teoria para alcançar uma visão ampla do tema.

For this historically short period, two generations of methodologies and tools have emerged: Additive generation and parametric Associative generation of CAD. Currently, designers worldwide engaged in new forms of design exploration. From this race, two prominent methodologies have developed from Associative Design approach – Object-Oriented Design (OOD) and Algorithm-Aided Design (AAD). The primary research objective is to investigate, examine, and push boundaries between OOD and AAD for new design space determination, where advantages of both design methods are fused to produce a new generation methodology which is called in the present study AID (Algorithm-aided Information Design). The study methodology is structured into two flows. In the first flow, existing CAD methodologies are investigated, and the conceptual framework is extracted based on the state of art analysis, then analysed data is synthesized into the subject proposal. In the second flow, tools and workflows are elaborated and examined on practice to confirm the subject proposal. In compliance, the content of the research consists of two theoretical and practical parts. In the first theoretical part, a literature review is conducted, and assumptions are made to speculate about AID methodology, its tools, possible advantages and drawbacks. Next, case studies are performed according to sequential stages of digital design through the lens of practical AID methodology implementation. Case studies are covering such design aspects as model & documentation generation, design automation, interoperability, manufacturing control, performance analysis and optimization. Ultimately, a set of test projects is developed with the AID methodology applied. After the practical part, research returns to the theory where analytical information is gathered based on the literature review, conceptual framework, and experimental practice reports. In summary, the study synthesizes AID methodology as part of Hybrid Design, which enables creative use of tools and elaborating of agile design systems integrating additive and associative methodologies of Digital Design. In general, the study

    Methods for integrating parametric design with building performance analysis Ajla Aksamija, PhD, LEED AP BD+C, CDT1 1University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA ABSTRACT: This paper discusses methods for integrating parametric design with building performance analysis procedures, specifically presenting tools and design methodologies that are suitable for whole building design. In this research, an ideal framework for integration of parametric and performance analysis procedures was developed. Then, the framework was tested using existing software applications, including building information modeling (BIM), non-BIM, parametric design and building performance analysis applications. Current applications that can integrate some form of building performance simulation with parametric modelling include Rhino 3D (non-BIM), Revit (BIM), and SketchUp (non-BIM). Revit and Rhino each have visual programming plugins to aid in the creation of parametric forms. In this research, three different workflows were tested. Specifically, Honeybee and Ladybug (for Rhino 3D), Insight 360 (for Revit) and Sefaira (for Revit) were evaluated. A case study building was used to test and evaluate the workflows, interoperability, modeling strategies and results. Three different building performance aspects were analyzed for each workflow: 1) energy modeling, 2) solar radiation analysis, and 3) daylighting. Simulation results from energy modeling, solar radiation and daylight simulations were recorded and analyzed. However, besides simulation results, the paper compares modeling procedures, parametric capabilities of investigated applications, ease of integration and interoperability. The results show a promising course for integrating parametric design with building performance simulations. KEYWORDS: Parametric design, building performance analysis, high-performance buildings, BIM, energy- efficiency INTRODUCTION Advances in building performance simulations have enabled designers to better understand how environmental factors affect building performance (Aksamija, 2013).

  • Curating Architectural 3D CAD Models the International Journal of Digital Curation Issue 1, Volume 4 | 2009
    98 Curating Architectural 3D CAD Models The International Journal of Digital Curation Issue 1, Volume 4 | 2009 Curating Architectural 3D CAD Models MacKenzie Smith, Associate Director for Technology, MIT Libraries July 2008 Abstract Increasing demand to manage and preserve 3-dimensional models for a variety of physical phenomena (e.g., building and engineering designs, computer games, or scientific visualizations) is creating new challenges for digital archives. Preserving 3D models requires identifying technical formats for the models that can be maintained over time, and the available formats offer different advantages and disadvantages depending on the intended future uses of the models. Additionally, the metadata required to manage 3D models is not yet standardized, and getting intellectual proposal rights for digital models is uncharted territory. The FACADE Project at MIT is investigating these challenges in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry and has developed recommendations and systems to support digital archives in dealing with digital 3D models and related data. These results can also be generalized to other domains doing 3D modeling. The International Journal of Digital Curation is an international journal committed to scholarly excellence and dedicated to the advancement of digital curation across a wide range of sectors. ISSN: 1746-8256 The IJDC is published by UKOLN at the University of Bath and is a publication of the Digital Curation Centre. Curating Architectural 3D CAD Models 99 Computer-Aided Design in Architecture Use of 3-dimensional Computer-Aided Design (3D CAD) software is routine in most design professions, including architecture, engineering, archeology, conservation, and other disciplines that deal with the built world – past, present, or future.

    MicroStation An Unrivaled Information Modeling Environment How Do You Choose the Right Information Modeling Software? Most projects today are designed and documented using computer-aided design However, unlike most CAD software, information modeling software is typically (CAD) software. But with shrinking budgets, compressed delivery schedules, and only useful for a single discipline, introducing the need for many software ever-increasing project scales and complexity, many organizations are turning to products to deliver an entire project. As a result, maintaining consistency information modeling in search of efficiencies in design, delivery, and operations. when exchanging design information, analyzing and evaluating it, creating Information modeling goes beyond simple 2D or 3D geometric representations designs, and producing deliverables can take an enormous amount of manual of a design by including the opportunity to: effort. Ask yourself: s Capture and incorporate all design-related information that should be s How much does inadequate interoperability cost you in additional manual considered re-entry, data loss, and error-prone translations? s Make more informed and, thus, better high-impact decisions much earlier in s Can your project team and project stakeholders make the best design, the design process with better, more complete conceptual designs construction, and operational decisions without ready access to all of the s Eliminate errors and omissions in the documentation process by having fully available relevant information?

Thus, there has been an increasing interest to study GD-BIM, with current focuses mainly on exploring applications and investigating tools. However, there are a lack of studies regarding methodological relationships and skill require- ment based on different development objectives or GD properties; thus, the threshold of developing GD-BIM still seems high. This study conducts a critical review of current approaches for developing GD in BIM, and analyses methodological relationships, skill requirements, and improvement of GD-BIM development. Accordingly, novel perspectives of objective-oriented, GD component-based, and skill-driven GD-BIM development as well as reference guides are proposed.
