Automação do processo de concepção de estrutura em concreto armado no Revit através do desenvolvimento de rotina em Dynam

Abstract

The conception of a structure, as the first stage of its design, is permeated with decision-making on the part of the design engineer, considering the need to find a solution that meets criteria im posed by budgetary, architectural, and construction issues, to name the main ones. In this context, current design processes are aided by developments related to Building Information Modeling (BIM), such as the emergence and improvement of software, such as Revit and Dynamo. In this regard, the present research aims to address the development of a Dynamo routine capable of automating the process of designing a reinforced concrete structure in Revit. To do this, the main concepts related to the structural design process, Building Information Modeling, and the soft ware used in the research development are collected. Next, the definition of the flowchart that guides the routine development is established, specifying the inputs, outputs, and data process ing steps. Each data processing step of the algorithm is described, by presenting the code in the Dynamo environment that defines it and illustrations of the intermediate results that arise from the routine execution. Once the routine development is completed, its execution is carried out, taking as input an architectural project whose structural conception was previously performed by an engineer, in order to compare it with the structural model produced as the output of the routine.
