Abstract: Systems and methods for selecting equipment for use in buildings are disclosed. A system may include at least one processor configured to receive a floor plan demarcating contours of a room. The processor may be configured to receive a selection of at least one functional requirement or equipment specification associated with the room and generatively analyze the room to obtain a plurality of solutions that at least partially conform to the at least one functional requirement or equipment specification. The processor may be configured to receive a selection of a solution that includes an equipment placement location. The processor may be configured to receive instructions to vary the equipment placement location, generatively analyze the room to update the selected solution based on the instructions, and display the updated solution.

Abstract: Systems and methods for extracting data from a 2D floor plan and retaining it in a building information model are disclosed. The system may include at least one processor configured to perform operations that may include accessing a 2D floor plan demarcating a plurality of rooms. Operations may include identifying, using a machine learning model, wall boundaries of the plurality of rooms. Operations may include storing the identified wall boundaries in a retention data structure. Operations may include generating a building information model, wherein the building information model includes the identified wall boundaries. Operations may include displaying, at an interface, a comparison of at least a portion of the 2D floor plan and the building information model. Operations may include receiving, from the interface, input based on the comparison. Operations may include updating the retention data structure based on the input.

Abstract: Structural design systems, methods, and computer readable media for automatically positioning primary and auxiliary equipment in a floor plan are disclosed.
