Many manual calculations and repeated modeling are required during the traditional structural design process. However, due to high cost, rural buildings in China cannot be professionally designed verified by designers as urban buildings, their safety economy easily meet requirements. Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology intelligent optimization algorithms can effectively improve process reduce costs, but applications field of residential limited. Therefore, this paper presents an...

Icons are integral to the signature systems within architectural spaces, serving pivotal roles through human–environment interactions. However, previous icon designs often exhibited a considerable randomness and neglected needs of visually impaired individuals. To address these issues overcome limitations computer-aided design methods, such as most them focusing only on text which not compatible with icons, this study presents an intelligent assistance method named “Universal Colour” for...

Beam–slab structures account for 50–65% of a building’s total dead load and contribute to 20% the overall cost CO2 emissions. Despite their importance, conventional beam–slab structural optimization methods often lack search efficiency accuracy, making them less effective practical engineering applications. Such limitations arise from problem involving complex solution space, particularly when considering components’ arrangement, dimensions, transfer paths simultaneously. To address research...

Signage is an important medium for individuals to obtain spatial environmental information conveniently and accurately. However, most previous studies focus on signage design with normal vision, neglecting the specific requirements of those low vision. Therefore, these designs lacking universality restrict activities vision in public spaces increase their risks. This study aims conduct quantitative research size brightness contrast individuals. A virtual simulation experimental platform...
