The design process of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems is complex time consuming due to the need follow codes. Since standards are not fixed, final outcome often depends on designer’s experience. development building information modeling (BIM) technology has made throughout lifecycle more integrated. BIM-based forward now widely used, providing a data foundation for combining HVAC system with machine learning. This paper proposes an unsupervised learning method based deep graph generative models uncover hidden patterns optimization strategies from results. We trained validated four models—GAE, GNF, GAN, diffusion—using terminal pipeline layout data. Accuracy precision metrics were used compare generated designs automated solutions, assessing models’ ability capture both local variations broader changes in logic.

Mozambique is experiencing the consequences of a severe energy crisis with economic and social impacts. Its strict dependence on hydroelectric sources being severely tested by recent droughts that have drastically reduced water levels in dams. However, addressing poverty exploring renewable thanks to investments sector European Union. The research concerns an analysis profile country penetration energy, presenting upgrading scope through semi-automatic calculation methodology Building Information Modeling (BIM) environment. building under study, located Maputo, Natural History Museum, which plays important role biodiversity conservation. Therefore, this paper proposes BIM for sizing environmental control system tailored serve museum. proposed replaces previous one includes photovoltaic not only meets museum’s load but also supplies electricity surrounding area. Energy production from surplus 30% has been achieved. digital identified maximum gap 1.5% between dimensions duct those traditional plant design, meeting ASHRAE requirements control.

In recent times, the rise of urbanization, industrialization, population growth, food security, and COVID-19 pandemic have led to an increased demand for indoor spaces with efficient air conditioning systems. As a result, there is growing interest in creating more complex HVAC systems improve spaces. Building information modeling (BIM) offers numerous benefits industry, such as clash detection, budget time reductions, efficiency. However, its implementation currently hindered by various challenges. This research aims identify major barriers BIM industry Turkey, using questionnaire survey 224 domain experts working 42 different companies across fields industry. The study utilized several statistical analyses categorize prioritize most critical barriers, including reliability tests, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory (CFA), Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) test, Bartlett’s ranking factors (IRI). results indicate that “Deficiencies Infrastructure Lack Qualified Personnel (DIP)” group constituted significant barrier, followed “Lack Documentation Specifications (LDS)”, Case Studies Project Drawings (DCP)”, Motivation Resistance (LMR)”. Moreover, our revealed 60% participants’ allocate less than 40% their budgets technological infrastructure, which hinders adoption BIM. To promote sector, we recommend enhancing personnel capacity building, improving skills knowledge about BIM, promoting guidelines, providing free access documentation practitioners.
