Reference number : GC-2017-Q4-00252, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Bristow, David (University of Victoria), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : British Columbia|Colombie-Britannique, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Collaborative Research and Development Grants - Project, program name french : Subventions de recherche et développement coopérative - projet, program purpose english : It is increasingly evident that buildings are facing mounting risks due to the ever-changing hazards, and the_x000D_
tightening requirements and expanding complexity of building designs. Due to the tight coupling between_x000D_
building systems of different types, failures can cascade across a building and its operation. This state would_x000D_
benefit from an integrated approach to risk assessment in the engineering design process that can model and_x000D_
depict cascade effects._x000D_
Completion of the research to meet this challenge is planned through four modules intended to study the_x000D_
potential of a new workflow to augment building design efforts and a new method to support the workflow._x000D_
Module one concerns experimenting with creating a 3D scan of existing buildings and Module two concerns_x000D_
converting these into Building Information Models (BIM). Combined, these modules are about determining_x000D_
how suitable data can be produced of a building to model cascading risk and may include augmentation with_x000D_
other information about the building or its operation such as condition assessments or other simulations of the_x000D_
building (e.g., structural) to produce a workflow that can populate risk parameters. Module three is the creation_x000D_
of a custom VR simulation that ingests the data from the other modules and allows clients to experience the_x000D_
cascade of hazard effects across building components. The final component is the creation of a risk assessment_x000D_
and decision support system within the simulation platform that incorporates a cascading risk computation in_x000D_
concert with the building information in the simulation to support engineering design._x000D_
Canada benefits through the creation of innovative engineering and technology, further advancing Canada's_x000D_
position as a world leader by providing our engineers with new capability. Further, application of the capability_x000D_
domestically can serve to reduce the risk to Canadian buildings., program purpose french : It is increasingly evident that buildings are facing mounting risks due to the ever-changing hazards, and the_x000D_
