Аннотация

Currently, digital technologies for modeling buildings and infrastructure are successfully used in international and national practice in the implementation of complex construction projects and large-scale programmes. At the same time, the transition to machine-readable standards being implemented in many countries in order to improve the quality of design documentation and to automate its verification faces serious methodological and technical problems. First of all, they are associated with the complexity of the digital models, as well as with the variety of requirements formulated in natural languages and imposed on models at the state, regional, departmental and corporate levels. Attempts to create catalogues of requirements and software tools for their maintenance and use, usually have specialized nature and do not provide the necessary completeness, normalization, consistency, linked set, unambiguity, traceability and validatability of requirement descriptions. In this regard, it seems constructive to use formal methods for specification and verification of requirements that have proven themselves in system and software engineering. The paper provides a comparative analysis of software tools for automated verification of regulatory requirements in the construction domain. There is an increased popularity of tools focused on the international standards IFC (Industry Foundation Classes), IDS (Information Delivery Specification) and providing control of the completeness of the object and attribute composition of models, as well as clarification of acceptable ranges of values. At the same time, the IDS standard is not formalized and does not provide for specifying the requirements expressed by arbitrary algebraic conditions. The use of the object-oriented data modeling language EXPRESS, in which the IFC information schema is also specified, looks promising for the formal specification and verification of requirements for digital models in construction. As a justification, it is shown that IDS specifications can be represented by logical expressions and EXPRESS functions, as well as arbitrary algebraic conditions can be specified as EXPRESS declarative rules. Examples of the formalization of some requirements from national construction standards and set of rules on the safety of buildings, structures and processes are provided in the paper as illustrations of the proposed approach. The possibilities of harmonizing the proposed formal approach with the IDS standard as a result of defining new facets for representing EXPRESS local, unique and global rules are also discussed.
