Façade Cleaning System Design AI
AI design of building façade access and cleaning systems.
Definition
Façade Cleaning System Design AI designs building maintenance units (BMUs), davit systems, and other façade access equipment. It analyzes building geometry, wind conditions, and maintenance requirements to create safe and efficient systems for exterior building maintenance.
In Depth
Building maintenance units (BMUs), davit systems, and other facade access equipment are required for buildings where the facade cannot be cleaned or maintained from the ground. AI optimizes the design by evaluating the building geometry, facade materials, and maintenance frequency to select and position the access equipment.
The system selection depends on the building height, the roof geometry, the facade complexity (setbacks, overhangs, curved surfaces), and the maintenance requirements (glass cleaning frequency, cladding inspection intervals). AI evaluates the reach and coverage of different systems — roof-mounted BMUs, ground-based platforms, rappel anchor systems — and identifies the configuration that provides access to 100% of the facade at minimum cost and with minimum impact on the roof design.
