衍生式建模應用於初期台灣省能建築設計

Generative Modeling for Preliminary Design of Energy Efficient Building in Taiwan

When architects must revise their design proposals incessantly during the early design stage, and energy conservation consultants must commit extensive time to assisting the architects, which is very costly. In situations when design information is rapidly changing, current design information processing and cooperation models may make it difficult to incorporate the views of energy conservation consultants, and more generally lead to difficulty in integrating professional knowledge from different fields. This study consequently relied on interviews with specialists to gain a better understanding of Taiwan architects' working processes, and employed Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) to draw architectural processes, find the times of key tasks, and confirm the information interchange needs and documents of various parties. This study employed generative modeling as a key information integration technology. By closely linking the design tools used by architects and the environmental simulation and analysis software used by energy conservation consultants, this tool can save design production time and reduce model revision costs. Furthermore, the results of simulation can be quickly returned to architects and energy conservation consultants, which can reduce team communication time and costs and accelerate decisions made by architects, consultants, and project clients. 建築師在設計初期會不斷地修改設計方案，節能顧問為了與建築師配合必須付出極大的工作成本與時間。在設計資訊快速變動的狀況下，目前的設計資訊處理與合作模式難以整合節能顧問的意見，造成跨領域專業知識整合的困難。本研究採用專家訪談了解台灣建築師的業務流程，以BPMN（Business Process Modeling Notation）繪製業務流程找出關鍵的作業時間點，確定建築師與節能顧問的交換需求與項目文件。本研究以衍生式建模做為資訊整合的關鍵技術，將建築師所用的設計工具與節能顧問所用的環境模擬分析軟體做緊密串聯，節省製作時間與降低模型編修成本。並將模擬分析的結果快速回饋給建築師與節能顧問，加速建築師、節能顧問與業主之間的決策，降低團隊溝通的時間與成本。
