“…A set of experts sit together and discuss how they perceive is the best approach to translate the rules. However, this approach is clearly limited, by the experts own view of the "best" translation (Gade et al 2021). The problem with this approach is that we known that in the translation of rules, require situated and domain specific knowledge and therefore, by nature, such knowledge and translation cannot be representative for an entire industry.…”

“…A fundamental different approach to the "traditional translation" of rules can then be suggested that emphasise a more situated approach and acknowledge that more decentralised methods of translation can provide for more practical applicable rules. Gade et al (2021) found through interviews with the practitioners specific aspects of translating rules from natural language into computer executable rules for improving the practical use. These practitioners indicated a need for transparency, flexibility, and recognition of unique, situated requirements in project contexts.…”

“…When developers or rule translators embed the rules into the systems, there can often be a divergence between the logic of how they interpreted the rules and how the rules can be interpreted in the context of the design project where these rules are applied. Gade et al (2021) found that a developer's method of adapting BMC to the contexts was handled in a top-down approach to ensure control and consistency. The developer was able to provide rapid and continuous updates.…”

Creating building designs is difficult for the designers, and often mistakes are made that are costly for the building process. The technology BIM-based Model Checking can help the designers identify errors in the design so they can correct them. The key is identifying errors, and with BIM-based Model Checking systems, it is the rules the specify how themes errors are identified, and in that sense, it is how the rules are identified that are the most important. However, there is not an agreed-upon method of translating such rules from, e.g., building codes that they the problematic translation in how the BIM-based Model Checking systems are limited in their adoption in the building design practices. In this study, we investigated practitioners' experiences with their work supported and unsupported by checking systems. The challenges were related to the translation of rules used in the assessment because they become more explicit and thereby reduce the designer's interpretative flexibility.

Compliance inspections and building analysis are critical to the success of any construction project. At present, such assessments are primarily conducted manually by experts in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector resulting in a tedious, labor‐intensive, and generally inefficient undertaking. Yet, with the gradual adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), automated building analysis and compliance checking become feasible. The Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) has received a lot of traction in the AEC industry as a vendor‐neutral data model. Its well‐defined semantics can be exploited by reasoning engines that allow for semantic reasoning on building models, the core mechanism required for automated compliance checking and building analysis. In this paper, a general‐purpose model checking framework for IFC building models, as well as an appropriate specification layout are introduced. Model checking via semantic reasoning is realized using various technologies from the Semantic Web. To present and evaluate our implementation, a sample specification is developed and tested on two IFC building models.
