โฆ Synopsis
A systematic approach is essential in the design of complex buildings. Oxford Regional Health Authority have developed an integrated building and CAD system. The building system consists of pre-determined building and engineering elements with the CAD system providing power assisted assembly, evaluation and documentation. The systems enable a range of building concepts to be explored, facilitating a directed search towards a single best-fit solution. Obsolescence of computer hardware and movement of skilled CAD staff can be a problem with buildings such as hospitals with long design and construction timescales. Benefits however, in addition to cost reductions, are the problem being better understood and solutions being greatly simplified.
