In separate theory and lab hours, the course gives basic computing knowledge such as algorithms, computer numerical control in production together with the context and culture of digital design and manufacturing, a glimpse
of the historical development of computational thinking and skills in application of computational thinking through solving conceptual design problems.

There are lots of criteria such as fire safety, structure, sustainability etc… which must be controlled by the designers. To improve the performance and accessibility of buildings, governing bodies publish different codes for each of the different criteria. Buildings must comply with these codes to get a permit for construction. The checking of the buildings according the codes is done manually by code officials. This process is time consuming, high in cost and prone to errors. To remedy this problem by using the tools like BIM and AI, systems that can automatically check the code compliance of projects are being developed. In this paper we provide an overview of the structures and capabilities of these systems and present the automated code compliance checking system that we develop for checking building models against some parts of the Turkish Fire Codes.

We describe the similarities and differences that we observed within each of the teams’ respective design processes and the nature of the solutions they generated for the respective problems as well as the similarities and differences that we discerned across the teams’ design processes. We discuss the implications of our findings for integration of digital technologies in architectural curriculum and development of digital technologies for supporting collaborative conceptual design processes in architecture.
