Research on the Algorithmic Layout optimization of Prefabricated Building’s Exterior Wall Panels

Abstract

This research was carried out to solve the problem of inefficiency and material waste caused by the lack of optimization in the layout design and cutting of the exterior wall panels of prefabricated steel high-rise residential buildings in China. Combined with building performance simulation, it first studies the relationship between relevant factors in the process of exterior wall panel layout and establishes corresponding mathematical model. Then, genetic and heuristic algorithm program are used to find the optimal solution of the panel cutting methods, thereby improving work efficiency and reducing environment pollution.
