Popis: | In this paper, we present GPLAN, a software aimed at constructing dimensioned floorplan layouts using graph-theoretical and optimization techniques. For GPLAN, the adjacency requirements are given in the following two forms: i. An adjacency graph: It allow users to draw an adjacency graph on a GUI (graphical user interface) corresponding to which GPLAN produces a set of dimensioned floorplans with a rectangular boundary, where each floorplan is topologically distinct from others. ii. A dimensionless layout: Here, users/designers can draw any layout with a rectangular or a non-rectangular boundary on a GUI and GPLAN transforms it into a dimensioned floorplan while preserving the adjacencies, positions, shapes of the rooms. The above approaches represent different ways of inserting adjacencies and GPLAN generate dimensioned floorplans corresponding to the given adjacencies. The larger aim of this work is to provide alternative platforms to users/designers for producing dimensioned floorplans for all given (architectural) constraints, which can be further refined by architects. |
