Abstract
This study reports on developing an innovative approach for the parametric analysis of daylighting and visual comfort, through a sun Concrete pouring represents a major critical path activity that is often affected by design limitations, structural
considerations and on-site operational constraints. As such, meticulous planning is required to ensure that both
the aesthetic and structural integrity of joints between cast in-situ components is achieved. Failure to adequately
plan concrete pouring could lead to structural defects, construction rework or structural instability, all having
major financial implications. Given the inherent complexity of large-scale construction projects, the ‘manual
planning’ of concrete pouring is a challenging task and prone to human errors. Against this backdrop, this study
developed 4D Building Information Management (BIM) approach to facilitate automated concrete joint positioning
solution (as a proof of concept) for design professionals and contractors. The study first developed
structural model in Revit, then extracted spatial information regarding all construction joints and linked them to
considerations and on-site operational constraints. As such, meticulous planning is required to ensure that both
