Abstract

Recognition and integration of 2D architectural drawings provide a sound basis for automatically evaluating building designs, simulating safety, estimating construction cost or planning construction sequences. To accomplish these targets, difficulties come from (1) an architectural project is usually composed of a series of related drawings, (2) 3D information of structural objects may be expressed in 2D drawings, annotations, tables, or the composites of above expressions, and (3) a large number of disturbing graphical primitives in architectural drawings complicate the recognition processes. In this paper, we propose new methods to recognize typical structural objects and architectural symbols. Then the recognized results on the same floor and drawings of different floors will be integrated automatically for accurate 3D reconstruction.
