This paper looks at the possibility of configuring high performance renovation of apartment buildings by the use of a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). A new thermal envelope wraps the whole building and allows it to achieve a really low energy performance of 25 kWh/m²/year. This new thermal envelope is composed of rectangular panels, always comprising insulation and cladding, and sometimes including, in addition, doors, windows or solar modules. The panels can be fixed directly onto the walls or onto a metal structure around the whole building. The decision support system, based on CSP approaches, will simultaneously enable the interactive definition of the renovation, the associated bill of material (BOM) and the building site assembly process. The range of knowledge to exploit and to model leads us to integrate into a single decision support system different constraint types, such as classical, dynamic, geometric and global constraints, as well as their filtering methods.

Abstract. Facade-layout synthesis occurs when renovating buildings to improve their thermal insulation and reduce the impact of heating on the environment. This interesting problem involves to cover a facade with a set of disjoint and configurable insulating panels. Therefore, it can be seen as a constrained rectangle packing problem, but for which the number of rectangles to be used and their size are not known a priori. This paper proposes an efficient way of solving this problem using constraint programming. The model is based on an open variant of the DiffN global constraint in order to deal with an unfixed number of rectangles, as well as a simple but efficient search procedure to solve this problem. An empirical evaluation shows the practical impact of every choice in the design of our model. A prototype implemented in the general purpose solver Choco is intended to assist architect decision-making in the context of building thermal retrofit.
