Abstract:

This paper proposes a novel genetic programming based technique for automatic development of planning, design and construction of a basic building. The problem uses certain predefined methods or algorithms to get a good and proper building plan. Our design takes care of the main problems such as ventilation, sunlight and air. Our plan is place in such a way that the maximum available space is used. The plan only for a ground floor is only being considered. However this may be extended to generate design for other floors too. In case of extending this plan to industry the algorithm can be modified to include the desired constraints. The inputs are the types of rooms and the area of the building and rooms. The program gives a proper plan placing the dinning , kitchen, bathroom, drawing, bedrooms in the fittest place
