Abstract
A method and system for generating a set of framing plan solutions for a building construction project uses a combination of code-based, physical, and performance attribute constraints, parameters, and variables and a ranking system that together provide framing plan alternatives selected from a calculated set of all possible framing plans. The framing plan alternatives are selected in a logical manner that considers constraints that are required as well as user selected and weighted constraints. The set of framing plan alternatives are then ranked according to input from the designer and/or customer regarding the relative importance of each of the constraints, parameters, and variables of the building construction project.
