In order to plan buildings compliant with respect to occupants' safety, performance-based analysis of the design can be conducted. For that, crowd simulations can be applied. These simulations are used to check whether performance indicators are fulfilled and the building is compliant.
To perform such analysis automatically, the model has to provide specific information on top of geometric information. For that, the IFC standard has to be extended. The key actors on this project are the Fire Safety Expert, the Simulation Expert as well as the AHJ (Authorities Having Jurisdiction).
The aim of this project is to perform this kind of analysis throughout the design phase in a repetitive manner to enhance the overall planning process.
