Abstract

Traditional CAD tools for architects offer a vast variety of drawing utilities to design buildings. It is up to the architect to maintain structural constraints such as beams and room-accessibility.

The main purpose of this internship was to design and implement an architectural CAD tool which automatically optimizes the building layout, based on constraints derived from architectural bestpractice concepts. The toolkit offers a user interface, where drawing and editing can be performed and a backend interface, where optimization algorithms i.e. constraint solvers can be implemented.
