Abstract
Simulation has long been a significant design driver in the building industry. To simulate is to foresee and understand the outcome of your design decisions. The scale of buildings makes the simulation process very important, specifically, that many projects are only executed once. Overtime, simulation tools have been developed to further enhance the design process. This chapter will discuss the simulation tools being explored in the building design lately, comparing the frequently used optimization process to a new form of intelligence aided design. It will explore the use of applied artificial intelligence, more specifically Machine Learning, in a simulation driven process and its potential applications in a material balanced building design.
