Improvement of the methodology for creating an architectural digital information model of a residential building using a modular approach
Main Article Content
Abstract
The aim of the study is to analyze the application of a modular approach based on a library of standardized building blocks and Building Information Modelling technologies (BIM technologies) in the design of typical residential buildings.
Research hypothesis: creation of BIM models of typical residential buildings using a modular approach and a library of TIM components reduces the time required to complete design work, reduces cost and improves the quality of design work. Research methods: analysis, synthesis and modeling.
The methodology for creating digital information models of typical residential buildings, described in principle in previous works, was considered in relation to all possible special cases. Based on the projects of the Atomstroykomplekscompany, fundamentally possible variants of typical residential buildings were determined — these are three groups: point, sectional and corner buildings with different floor areas, divided into subgroups by the number of elevators.Staircase and elevator unit modules were created for each subgroup. At the next stage, the parameters of the number of storeys and floor area for the BIM models in each of the subgroups of residential buildings were changed, and the changes occurring in the library modules were determined. As a result, the actions that need to be taken to library modules for their adaptation for use in apartment buildings with different numbers of storeys and floor areas were described.
As a result, the following was determined:
• possible variants of architectural forms of plans of residential buildings;
• changes that library modules may undergo due to changes in the area of a residential building during the design;
• measures that should be taken to adapt library modules to allow for changes in the area of sections of residential buildings.
