Implementation of anArchitectural Design Environment The development of IDEA+ Stefan Boeykens Dept. Architecture CAD-Lab K.U.Leuven (Belgium)
1 – Introduction • Ongoing transition from traditionalto digital architectural practice • Most CAAD-tools focused on construction documentation • Lack of early-design phaseevaluation tools
1 – Introduction (cont.) • Conceptual Model (1992) • Design Phases • Scale Levels • Transitions • Evaluation tests • Core Object Model (2000) • MERODE • Entity Relationship Diagram • Object-Event Table
2 – Data Structure • Strict Separation between CAAD Entities & Graphical Entities
3 – Representations • Representations • Interface to the project data • Collection of links between Graphical Entities & CAAD Entities • 2D – 3D – Tree – Text - ...
4 – Transitions • Transition between Design Phases • Sketch Design • Preliminary Design • Construction Design
4 – Transitions (cont.) • Transition between Scale Levels • Masterplan Level • Block Level • Space Level
5 - Tests • Elaborated Tests(not integrated in IDEA+) • Daylight • Cost Estimation • Tests in the Design Environment • Use test while designing • Libraries & Previous Projects • Interaction with Data-structure • Add data to CAAD Entities
6 - Conclusions • Partly functional • User-interface • Main tools • Basic Building Elements • Basic Representations
6 – Conclusions (cont.) • To Do • Implement Transitions • Integrate Test Modules • Work-In-Progress • Not the intention to make a commercial-class application END OF PRESENTATION
