Title:

Geometrical and topological approaches in building information modelling

Author(s):
Paul, N.; Borrmann, A.
Abstract:
This paper presents concepts for dealing with topological information in building informa¬tion models. On the one hand, it shows how to derive topological relationships from “traditional” building models consisting of unconnected B-Rep bodies by means of geometric processing algorithms. On the other hand, it discusses the capabilities of building modelling based on topological concepts. This approach combines relational database design principles with algebraic and point set topology and shows h...     »
