Towards an automated AI-based framework for floor plan compliance checks for residential buildings
arXiv:2607.00015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To improve residents' well-being in Australia's urban areas, governments have introduced policy reforms such as SEPP65, BADS, and SPP7.3 to enhance apartment design quality. These regulations require precise geometric and spatial analysis to evaluate health-related features, including daylight access, natural ventilation, privacy, and space efficiency. However, compliance checking remains challenging due to its manual, time-intensive nature. Additionally, evolving policies limit scalability for large-scale assessments across thousands of apartm
The increasing complexity and volume of urban planning regulations, coupled with advancements in AI, are driving the need for automated solutions to overcome manual compliance checking limitations.
This development indicates the growing application of AI for complex regulatory automation, moving beyond simple data processing to interpret spatial and geometric data for compliance.
The process of architectural and urban planning compliance checking could shift from manual, time-intensive human review to automated, AI-driven evaluation for efficiency and scalability.

Automated compliance checks reduce design approval times and construction project delays.
The proliferation of AI-driven compliance tools could lead to more standardized and consistent application of building codes across regions.
This could enable rapid prototyping and evaluation of urban development scenarios, influencing future city planning and potentially even regulatory evolution at a faster pace.
