Analytical modelling in Dynamo
BIM is applied as modern database for civil
engineering. Its recent development allows to preserve
both structure geometrical and analytical information. The
analytical model described in the paper is derived directly
from BIM model of a structure automatically but in most
cases it requires manual improvements before being sent
to FEM software. Dynamo visual programming language
was used to handle the analytical data. Authors developed
a program which corrects faulty analytical model obtained
from BIM geometry, thus providing better automation for
preparing FEM model. Program logic is explained and test
cases shown
