Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of digital technology in building engineering, specifically to an intelligent three-dimensional modeling system and method for building engineering. Background Technology

[0002] As building engineering projects become larger, more complex, and more intelligent, 3D modeling technology has become a core support for the digital transformation of building engineering, and is widely used in design optimization, clash detection, construction simulation, and operation and maintenance management. Currently, 3D modeling in building engineering mainly relies on traditional BIM modeling tools, such as Revit and Navisworks, which are largely dependent on manual operation and have many technical bottlenecks, making it difficult to meet the efficient, accurate, and collaborative modeling needs of modern building engineering. The main shortcomings of existing technologies are as follows: 1. Low modeling efficiency: Traditional modeling methods require manual drawing and parameter setting of each component. For complex building components (such as irregular curtain walls and space trusses), the modeling cycle is long, the workload is large, and human error is prone to occur. 2. Poor data compatibility: Modeling data from different disciplines (architecture, structure, MEP) are based on different formats, which can easily lead to data loss and errors during data exchange, forming data silos and making it difficult to achieve multi-discipline collaborative modeling. This is the core pain point of data interoperability in current BIM applications. 3. Low level of intelligence: The existing system lacks the ability to intelligently analyze and automatically optimize building engineering data. It cannot automatically correct modeling deviations according to design specifications and construction processes, and it is also difficult to achieve real-time linkage between the model and on-site construction data, resulting in the model being out of touch with the actual project. 4. Poor model reusability: Modeling results from different projects are difficult to reuse quickly, and repetitive modeling is common, increasing modeling costs. 5. Performance bottlenecks are prominent. The model size after integration of all disciplines is huge, which can easily lead to problems such as operation lag and slow view refresh. In addition, lightweight processing is often accompanied by information loss, which affects the practicality of the model. Furthermore, current technologies do not adequately integrate 3D modeling with actual engineering needs. Models often remain at the level of visualization, failing to deeply support core aspects such as construction decision-making, cost control, and operation and maintenance management, thus failing to achieve the value leap from modeling to application. Therefore, developing an intelligent 3D modeling system and method for building engineering has become an urgent need in the field of digital building engineering. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Example 1: An Intelligent 3D Modeling System for Building Engineering This embodiment provides an intelligent 3D modeling system for building engineering, including a data acquisition module, an intelligent preprocessing module, a collaborative modeling module, an intelligent optimization module, a model storage and retrieval module, a visualization module, and an interface expansion module. The modules are connected through a bus to realize real-time data transmission and collaborative work.

[0021] The data acquisition module employs multi-source data acquisition terminals, including drawing scanners, UAV aerial survey equipment, 3D laser scanners, and data interface terminals. It can acquire design drawings in CAD and PDF formats, topographic and soil parameters from geological survey reports, process requirements and construction parameters from construction technology documents, material models, specifications, and performance parameters from material parameter tables, on-site topographic data obtained from UAV aerial surveys, measured data of existing buildings and components obtained from 3D laser scanning, and equipment operation data and maintenance records during operation and maintenance. Simultaneously, it incorporates a multi-source data fusion algorithm to initially integrate data of different types and formats, ensuring data integrity.

[0022] The intelligent preprocessing module incorporates a data cleaning algorithm, a format conversion tool, and an AI feature extraction model. The data cleaning algorithm removes redundant and erroneous data (such as duplicate component parameters and incorrect dimensional data) from the collected data and corrects data deviations. The format conversion tool transforms unstructured data such as PDF drawings and site photos into structured data through OCR recognition and image segmentation technology, and unifies design data in different formats such as CAD and Revit into the IFC standard format to ensure data compatibility. The AI ​​feature extraction model, based on deep learning algorithms, automatically identifies building components (such as walls, beams, columns, and pipelines), dimensional parameters, and constraints (such as seismic resistance level and fire protection requirements) in the drawings, generating standardized basic modeling data, which is then output to the collaborative modeling module.

[0023] The collaborative modeling module includes a multi-disciplinary collaborative unit, an automatic modeling unit, and a human interaction unit. The multi-disciplinary collaborative unit utilizes a cloud-based collaborative platform, supporting simultaneous online login for professionals from architecture, structure, MEP, and other disciplines. Different professional access permissions can be set (e.g., designers can only edit models specific to their discipline, while administrators can view all professional models and assign permissions), enabling real-time synchronization of modeling data and avoiding conflicts between different disciplines. The automatic modeling unit has a built-in standardized component library (containing commonly used component models from architecture, structure, MEP, and other disciplines) and a modeling rule library (containing modeling specifications and node connection requirements for different types of buildings). Based on pre-processed standardized data, it automatically matches components, draws models, sets parameters, and connects nodes using AI-generated design algorithms. For irregularly shaped components such as curtain walls and space trusses, parametric modeling algorithms are used to automatically generate 3D models by inputting key component parameters (such as curvature, span, and thickness). The human interaction unit provides a visual interface, allowing designers to fine-tune and supplement the automatically generated models (e.g., modify component dimensions, add personalized nodes) to meet personalized modeling needs.

[0024] The intelligent optimization module includes a specification verification unit, a collision detection unit, a parameter optimization unit, and a lightweight optimization unit. The specification verification unit incorporates digital models of architectural design codes and construction acceptance standards (such as GB50010-2010 "Code for Design of Concrete Structures" and GB50009-2012 "Load Code for Building Structures"). Using AI algorithms, it compares model parameters with specification requirements, automatically verifying whether the dimensions, materials, and layout of model components conform to the specifications, and outputs a verification report in real time, identifying non-compliance items and providing correction suggestions. The collision detection unit employs a three-dimensional spatial collision detection algorithm to comprehensively detect collisions across multiple disciplines, including architecture, structure, and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) models, accurately determining... The system identifies collision locations (such as pipelines colliding with beams, equipment colliding with walls) and outputs collision reports and optimization solutions (such as adjusting pipeline routing or modifying component positions). The parameter optimization unit, based on construction techniques and cost control requirements, establishes a parameter optimization model and automatically optimizes the dimensions and material parameters of components, reducing construction difficulty and material costs while ensuring modeling accuracy. The lightweight optimization unit uses a lossless compression algorithm to lightweight the model, eliminating redundant information (such as unnecessary detail textures) while retaining core parameters and geometric information, reducing the model size by more than 70%. This ensures smooth model loading, browsing, and editing, resolving the issue of sluggish operation for large-volume models.

[0025] The model storage and retrieval module adopts a distributed cloud storage architecture, which classifies and stores intermediate data, final model data, verification reports, optimization schemes, etc. during the modeling process. It supports data encryption protection (using AES encryption algorithm) and hierarchical access control to prevent data leakage. At the same time, it establishes a model retrieval and reuse mechanism, which enables the rapid reuse of modeling results from different projects through keyword search (such as "office building main beam model") and component category search (such as "concrete column"), thereby reducing redundant modeling.

[0026] The visualization module uses real-time 3D rendering technology, supporting multi-angle browsing, scaling, and rotation of the model to achieve detailed display of components (such as viewing the material texture and size parameters of the components); it also supports the linkage display of the model and engineering data, allowing users to view the corresponding material parameters, construction progress, and cost information by clicking on the model components; it supports construction process simulation (such as simulating concrete pouring and component installation procedures) and operation and maintenance scenario simulation (such as simulating equipment operation and maintenance processes), intuitively presenting the entire life cycle status of the project.

[0027] The interface extension module sets up standardized interfaces (such as API interfaces and IFC interfaces) to support integration with construction project cost management systems, progress management systems, smart construction site systems, and IoT monitoring systems. This enables bidirectional linkage between model data and project cost data, progress data, and on-site monitoring data. For example, component parameters in the model can be synchronized to the cost management system to automatically calculate material usage and costs; on-site construction data from the smart construction site system can be synchronized to the model to update the model status in real time and support project decision-making.

[0028] Example 2: A method for intelligent 3D modeling of building engineering This embodiment provides an intelligent 3D modeling method for building engineering, based on the intelligent 3D modeling system for building engineering in Embodiment 1, including the following steps: 1. Data Acquisition: Using terminals such as drawing scanners, UAV aerial survey equipment, and 3D laser scanners in the data acquisition module, design drawings (CAD format, PDF format), geological survey data (topography, soil parameters), construction process data (procedure requirements, construction parameters), material parameter data (models and specifications of materials such as concrete, steel bars, and glass), and on-site measured data (on-site topographic data obtained from UAV aerial surveys and existing site component data obtained from 3D laser scanning) of a large complex building are collected. A multi-source data fusion algorithm is adopted to achieve unified collection and preliminary integration of various types of data.

[0029] 2. Intelligent Data Preprocessing: The intelligent preprocessing module cleans the collected multi-source data, removing duplicate component parameters and erroneous dimensional data, and correcting data deviations; it converts PDF format design drawings into structured data using OCR recognition technology, and converts CAD format design data into IFC standard format; through the AI ​​feature extraction model, it automatically identifies building components such as walls, beams, columns, and pipelines in the drawings, extracts parameters such as component dimensions, materials, and locations, identifies constraints such as seismic resistance level and fire protection requirements, generates standardized modeling base data, and outputs it to the collaborative modeling module.

[0030] 3. Multi-disciplinary Collaborative Modeling: Architectural, structural, and MEP professionals log into the cloud-based collaborative platform through multi-disciplinary collaborative units to obtain standardized basic modeling data. The automatic modeling unit, based on the built-in component library and modeling rule library, uses AI generative design algorithms to automatically match components, draw models, set parameters, and connect nodes. For irregularly shaped curtain walls in complexes, key parameters such as the curvature, span, and glass specifications of the curtain wall are input, and a parametric modeling algorithm automatically generates a 3D model of the irregularly shaped curtain wall. The manual interaction unit fine-tunes the preliminary 3D model generated by automatic modeling, such as modifying the dimensions of some components and adding personalized nodes, completing multi-disciplinary collaborative modeling and generating a complete initial draft of the 3D model.

[0031] 4. Intelligent Model Optimization: Through the intelligent optimization module, the standard verification unit automatically verifies whether the component dimensions, materials, and layout of the initial draft of the 3D model conform to the architectural engineering design specifications. If it finds that the cross-sectional dimensions of a beam do not meet the specifications, it outputs a verification report and correction suggestions, and adjusts the beam's cross-sectional dimensions according to the correction suggestions. The collision detection unit automatically detects multi-disciplinary models, identifies potential collision hazards between electromechanical pipelines and structural beams, accurately locates the collision positions, and provides an optimization scheme to adjust the pipeline routing, completing the collision optimization. The parameter optimization unit automatically optimizes the material parameters of some components based on construction technology and cost control requirements, changing the material of a non-load-bearing wall from concrete to aerated concrete blocks, reducing material costs and construction difficulty. The lightweight optimization unit performs non-destructive lightweighting processing on the optimized model, reducing the model volume by 75% to ensure smooth model loading and browsing.

[0032] 5. Model Storage and Reuse: Through the model storage and retrieval module, the optimized final 3D model, intermediate data, verification reports, optimization schemes, etc. are classified and stored in a distributed cloud storage system. Access control is set up so that only authorized personnel can view and edit the model. A model retrieval mechanism is established so that the model can be retrieved by keywords such as "complex irregular curtain wall model", which facilitates reuse in similar projects in the future.

[0033] 6. Visualization and Data Integration: The visualization module enables multi-angle browsing and detailed display of the 3D model. Clicking on curtain wall components allows users to view information such as glass material, dimensions, and construction progress. The interface expansion module connects the 3D model with the cost management system and smart construction site system, synchronizing component parameters from the model to the cost management system to automatically calculate material usage and costs. On-site construction progress data from the smart construction site system is synchronized to the model, updating the model status in real time and supporting construction decisions.

[0034] 7. Model Updates and Maintenance: When the design of the complex building changes (such as adjusting the layout of a floor), the 3D model is updated in real time through the collaborative modeling module; based on on-site construction measurement data and equipment operation data, the model is maintained regularly to ensure that the model is consistent with the actual project and to achieve dynamic management of the model throughout its entire life cycle.
