COMPAS: software solution for complex construction projects In a construction project, different disciplines such as architecture, engineering, specialist planning and executing construction companies work together. Different software solutions are used for the design, the static analysis of the structure and for production planning. Adjustments in the design and planning have to be incorporated manually into each individual software solution, which is time‐consuming. For complex geometries and innovative construction methods, additional analyses and adjustments are required, which is hardly feasible with today's software solutions. COMPAS was developed for efficient data transfer between different software environments and thus promotes innovation in the construction industry. COMPAS is an open source computational framework that can be used independently of commercial software solutions. It has a geometry database, flexible data structures for different disciplines and algorithms for calculations such as structural analysis. There are numerous COMPAS extensions for specific applications such as assembly planning, timber construction, robotic fabrication and additive manufacturing. In early 2023, the COMPAS association was founded to promote further development and education. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
