Artificial Intelligence Applications in Earthquake Resistant Architectural Design: Determination of Irregular Structural Systems With Deep Learning and Imageai Method
(Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2020) Bingol, Kaan; Akan, Asli Er; Ormecioglu, Hilal Tugba; Er, Arzu
Although the architectural design process is carried out with the collaboration of experts who are experienced in many different areas from the main preferences to the detailing stage, the major decisions such as plan organization, mass design etc. are taken by the architect. Computer Aided Design (CAD) programs are generally effective after the major decisions of the design are taken. For this reason, it is common for the main decisions, taken during the design process, to be changed during the analysis of the structural system. In order to prevent this, in the early stages of architectural design, earthquake system awareness and structural system design should be included as an design input; as, the failure of the structural system which did not considered well in the architectural design phase leads to unexpected revisions in the implementation project phase and thus leads to serious losses in both time and cost. The aim of this study is to create an Irregularity Control Assistant (IC Assitant) that can provide architects general information about the appropriateness of structural system decisions to earthquake regulations in the early stages of design process by using the deep learning and image processing methods. In this way, correct decisions will be made in the early stages of the design and unexpected revisions that may occur during the implementation project phase will be prevented.

Towards an Earthquake-Resistant Architectural Design With the Image Classification Method
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Akan, Asli Er; Bingol, Kaan; Ormecioglu, Hilal Tugba; Er, Arzu; Ormecioglu, Tevfik Oguz; Er Akan, Aslı
Architectural design is an interdisciplinary process which involves multiple stages that are interconnected. In this process, it is common for major decisions to be changed during the final stage, the analysis of the structural system. After making substantial corrections, the architect has to revisit the early stages, the preliminary project. This back-and-forth process can result in significant losses in time and cost. The proposed Irregularity Control Assistant (IC-Assistant) aims to provide architects with feedback on the conformity of structural system decisions to the irregularities defined in the Turkish Building Earthquake Code (TBEC-2018), using image processing methods at the early stages of the design process. The IC-Assistant was preliminarily created to evaluate the torsional irregularity of plan organization using deep learning methods. In this study, the results of the IC-Assistant were verified by structural analysis with the Prota-Structure program. The novelty of this study is the use of the image-classification method in earthquake-resistant architectural design. Up to this point, the method has been mainly used in facial recognition systems. This method minimizes time, human error, and cost losses and includes awareness of load bearing and earthquake resistance as inputs in the early stages of architectural design.
