Abstract
In literature, the generation of floor plans has mainly been confined to dimensionless floor plans with rectangular boundaries having no open spaces within the floor plan. In this paper, the user is allowed to construct a dimensioned boundary using slant, horizontal, and vertical line segments, where dimensioned open spaces can be drawn within the boundary layout. Once the boundary is finalized, it can be partitioned into dimensioned blocks using vertical and horizontal dissections. Each block can be further partitioned into dimensioned rooms which results in a dimensioned floor plan F for the given boundary layout. The dissection method employed is based on the slicing tree approach, which results in floor plans that are amenable to slicing and consist of non-rectangular rooms, offering the potential for open spaces within floor plan F. As a preliminary step towards automation, we have developed an interactive user interface for generating dissected dimensioned floor plans.
