A Comparative Study Between BIM And Traditional Method CAAD In The Interior Schematic Design

Information of Construction Industry in China lagging behind the developed countries also lags behind other domestic industries. Many firms are still stuck in a hand-drawn concept map, two-dimensional CAAD for plan, three-dimensional CAAD for rendering. Although the concept of BIM is getting well-known in the construction industry, but BIM application is still rare in the field of interior design. One reason for the phenomenon is that comparative study between BIM and Traditional Method CAAD in interior design Scheme had not been detailed studies. In chapterâ… , at first, the researcher made a brief introduction on the research status and up-to dated statements. Then, based on the status quo of the background and purpose of the content, researcher introduced the significance of the study. After that, focus of the study and difficult may be encountered will be mentioned. Finally, researcher advanced the research routine. In chapterâ…¡, with a survey of the Yangtze River Delta region's construction industry, researcher got the latest data. Get to know how the view of the construction industry about architectural schematic design software is.In chapterâ…¢, Define the terms, and present evaluation of case studies based on survey results, then establish software & hardware platform, finally present evaluation methods of case design.In chapterâ…£, Base on case Studies, the researchers compare Traditional CAAD and BIM's performance in interior schematic design phase, covering the floor plans, top map, elevations, sections,3D models, renderings, sound environmental analysis, sunshine analysis, thermal environmental analysis and light environment. In Chapterâ…¤, researchers classified and summarized the study data.
