Applying Fire Simulation to BIM Modeling with API Programming for Evacuation Time Calculation

Abstract

Revit secondary development (Revit Application Programming Interface, abbreviation Revit API) is currently and often used within Revit, and it is the Revit development trend of future BIM software. BIM is already closely tied to the construction industry, and BIM is inseparable from some large public infrastructure projects. In this literature, the Revit API is being used to derive the parameter data from the Revit model to carry out calculations for analysis and study on the feasibility of using the Revit API to draft the personnel evacuation program.
