A visualization system for the comfort analysis of modular architecture: A case study

Abstract

According to the development of software, information sharing is possible between architectural design areas and other areas. Theoretically, information sharing has the advantage of should being able to quickly find to objective analysis of alternatives and an alternative that meets the constraint for designers. Although currently the design software that was made on collaboration is available energy analysis through data compatible, there are limits in terms of time and staff efficiency in design process. Thus, we will try to implement the process to allow generative design, visualization of analysis and optimization of alternative targeting factory manufacturing building that BIM-based design has been carried out to date. First, extracted information of the window as parameters among the building modeling information generate alternatives. After analysis of temperature for each alternative, modeling maps the color through the analyzed data. Consequently aesthetic of the design, the objectivity and efficiency can be achieved concurrently. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
