Abstract
The present research work is situated within the broader context of the ongoing Digital Transformation across all sectors, including construction, where project development methodologies are evolving rapidly. The topic of architectural and construction virtualization, framed within the philosophy of Building Information Modeling (BIM), is particularly pertinent and timely. This relevance stems not only from the rapid and widespread adoption of this digital technology but also from its formal acknowledgment at the regulatory level, emphasizing the necessity of adapting to tools that require specialized expertise and a multidisciplinary technical culture. In this regard, the issue of interoperability becomes crucial, understood as the ability of systems to share and utilize project data while ensuring that information remains intact, consistent, and usable throughout the entire lifecycle of the building. In a context where current workflows still present limitations, this research aims to test various workflows by both evaluating the transmission of information between different platforms and experimenting with the direct implementation of calculation engines within BIM systems to minimize data loss. The overarching goal is to enhance interoperability between BIM systems and energy analysis platforms by specifically proposing the extension of BIM platform functionalities through the use of visual programming languages (VPL). This workflow has been tested on various case studies of differing complexity, consistently achieving a direct connection with the model. In conclusion, the focus of the research does not lie in the numerical outcomes of the analyses conducted but rather in the opportunity to enhance BIM platforms with generative modeling functionalities. Given the flexibility of visual programming languages, these functionalities can be implemented in a variety of ways to address diverse project needs.
