An office building must meet various requirements in terms of technology, construction and usability, which is why the planning can be very complex. In general, the function of an office building is to provide office space for one or more companies and to create a pleasant working environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ontology<\/b><\/p>\n

The initially developed ontology of an office building focuses on the physical and functional components of an office building. It includes information about load bearing and non load bearing components, usable main materials and the office building use. Furthermore, through background research, it was able to understand the office building individuality and the relations between its components. Based on that, two different design options were included in the ontology, which were defined differently and included varied values for parameters like length, width, storey height and amount of floors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The created ontology is presented in the following figure and is additionally, available as hyperlink: OfficeBuilding-Ontology<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parametric model<\/b><\/p>\n

Based on the created ontology, the parametric model of the office building was developed and extended. Since companies vary in the number of employees, it was important to develop a model that can influence the volume of the building so that the office building can be customized according to company size. Furthermore, by influencing the height\u00a0of the office building, other components such as the number of storeys are affected, which is why this\u00a0parameter was\u00a0integrated into the model. Moreover,\u00a0the dimension of columns, number of columns and slab thickness are parameters, which need to be adjusted according to the size of the office building in order to bear the dead weight and the live loads, since statically they are in relation to each other.<\/p>\n

All in all, the included input parameters are:<\/p>\n
