A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Evolution of technology has continuously engaged the engineering profession over the past several centuries. From the wood covered lead pencil, which was first mass-produced in 1662 to the recently surfaced Building Information Technology (BIM) all note down the revolutionary impact of technology on structural engineering practice. Currently, increasing complexity of our codes and standards as we delve deeper in the information era makes conforming accurately to the specifications a cumbersome process. The concept of intelligent digital design system within the context of structural engineering in the 21st. century will provide key solutions in simplifying engineering design practice. The information era shows that a proper information infrastructure offers many benefits that help produce and share high quality engineering data and decision management systems more cost-effectively and more efficiently. The intelligent structural design system described in this work focuses on the relationship among the various Engineering Information Management Systems and the Building Information Modeling (BIM). By providing more accurate information and interactive structural elements, intelligent design code offers engineers and consultants efficient and unambiguous methods to validate design assumptions against specifications and alternatives in a digital environment to achieve design objectives.
