Kent Homes is a home manufacturer dedicated to building well-crafted, energy-efficient homes and buildings.Utilizing building information modelling (BIM) technology to improve the efficiency and effectiveness ofbuilding design and production planning, Kent Homes confronts several challenges. The primary objective ofthe proposed research is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of BIM for building manufacturing and tominimize construction material waste by developing new BIM tools for specialist trades:AUTOMATING 3D MODELLING OF ELECTRICAL WIRING INTO BIM MODELS: This task willautomate the electrical wiring modelling within a 3D environment under the constraints of the CanadianElectrical Code. This wiring modelling add-on will provide input data for the wiring material wasteminimization add-on.AUTOMATING INFORMATION RETRIEVAL FROM BIM MODELS FOR CARPENTER TRADES: Theobjective here is to automate the information extraction process by developing a new BIM tool. This taskinvolves data identification, data mapping, and Revit add-on development. The purpose of the dataidentification is to identify the information needed by carpenter trades for moulding doors and windows.MINIMIZING MATERIAL WASTE FOR SPECIALIST TRADES: This task will explore avenues for materialwaste minimization based on BIM technology, focusing on the moulding material for carpenter trades andelectrical wiring material for electrical trades. An algorithm will be further integrated with the BIM model inorder to automate the generation of the optimized material cutting plan.Successful implementation of the proposed research will increase the competitiveness of Canadian builders inthe construction market. Modules can be built through a more efficient and cost-effective engineering methodthat can deliver market requirements for increased construction speed, green buildings, reduced material waste,improved quality, and rapid return on investment.

肯特家园是一家致力于建造精心制作的节能住宅和建筑的家居制造商。利用建筑信息建模（BIM）技术来提高建筑设计和生产规划的效率和有效性，肯特家园面临着几个挑战。拟议的研究的主要目标是提高建筑制造业的BIM的效率和有效性，并通过开发新的BIM工具来减少建筑材料的浪费：将电气布线的3D建模自动化为BIM模型：这项任务将在3D环境中根据美国电气规范的约束进行电气布线建模。这个布线建模插件将为布线材料浪费最小化插件提供输入数据。自动化信息检索从BIM模型木匠贸易：这里的目标是通过开发一个新的BIM工具自动化信息提取过程。此任务涉及数据识别、数据映射和Revit附加模块开发。数据识别的目的是识别木工行业用于成型门窗所需的信息。减少专业行业的材料浪费：本任务将探索基于BIM技术的材料浪费最小化的途径，重点关注木工行业的成型材料和电气行业的电线材料。一种算法将进一步与BIM模型相结合，以自动生成优化的材料切割计划。拟议研究的成功实施将提高加拿大建筑商在建筑市场的竞争力。模块可以通过更高效和更具成本效益的工程方法来建造，可以满足市场对提高施工速度、绿色建筑、减少材料浪费、提高质量和快速投资回报的要求。
