Samenvatting:

Building Information Modeling: Framework for Structural Design introduces a structure and architecture synergy (SAS) framework that helps develop and enhance the understanding of the fundamental principles of architectural analysis using BIM tools.

Building Information Modeling: Framework for Structural Design introduces a structure and architecture synergy (SAS) framework that helps develop and enhance the understanding of the fundamental principles of architectural analysis using building information modeling (BIM) tools. Based upon three main components: namely, the structural melody, structural poetry, and structural analysis, along with the BIM tools as the frame enabler, this new framework allows users to explore structural design as an art while also factoring in the principles of engineering. The framework stresses the influence structure can play in form generation and in defining spatial order and composition. By highlighting the interplay between architecture and structure, the book emphasizes the conceptual behaviors of structural systems and their aesthetic implications and enables readers to thoroughly understand the art and science of whole structural system concepts.

Key Features:

• Is updated throughout
• Adds new exercises; cutting‑edge information on the use of AI, Machine Learning (ML), and modelling; and issues of sustainability.
• Presents the use of BIM technology as part of a design process or framework that can lead to a more comprehensive, intelligent, and integrated building design.
• Places special emphasis on the application of BIM technology for exploring the intimate relationship between structural engineering and architectural design. Includes a discussion of current and emerging trends in structural engineering practice and the role of the structural engineer in building design using new BIM technologies.
