Abstract: Apparatus operative to efficiently manage smoke aspects of a design plan. and smoke control practices. A design plan is represented using multiple dynamic components. Each dynamic component may include a parameter changeable via the user interactive interface. The dynamic components may be arranged in a user interactive interface to form a first set of boundaries, including a respective length and area, and defining at least a portion of a first unit. AI may determine a longest path of egress and a supportable occupancy load that may be used to determine compliance with parameters of a given code. The AI may assess whether a building described in the design plans complies with a relevant code set forth by an authority having jurisdiction. Codes may include, for example, codes relating to smoke control and fire safety.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus operative to quantify building metrics using artificial intelligence analysis of a design plan and apply the quantified building metrics to smoke control practices.
