Graph Database Application Method for Automatic Review of Open BIM-based Design Suitability

Abstract

This study derives items for BIM utilization in order to automatically review the design suitability of the open BIM model built in the detailed design stage, and proposes the possibility by applying it to the graph database. In order to derive design suitability items, among the items of the Universal Design Guidelines published by Seoul City and Gyeonggi-do, items applicable to BIM were analyzed and classified. The method of this study established the design constructability concept, derived items to apply it, and sought ways to connect and utilize BIM through the graph database. Among the universal design guideline items, research was conducted focusing on the architectural field, items were investigated and analyzed, items applicable to BIM were extracted, the applicability of the graph database was assessed, and a rule set was established to build a prototype. Through this, it contributes to the improvement of design quality and productivity, and proposes a research method for the introduction of artificial intelligence in the field of architectural design as a basic study of reasoning methodology using BIM data.
