BIM Clash Parameter Map: Duct & Pipe Routing Phase Space

Interactive 2D phase-space companion to the 3D BIM clash detector: every point on the map is a candidate HVAC duct / plumbing pipe height pair, colored live by the same axis-aligned bounding-box clash scan, so you can see the whole routing search space at once instead of one snapshot at a time.

ControlsSliders for HVAC duct height, plumbing pipe height and clearance tolerance (mm), a click/drag-anywhere-on-the-map interaction that sets both heights directly, an AI Auto-Resolve button that runs the same generative grid search as the 3D version and animates the point to the best clash-free cell, and a Reset Routing button.

The same axis-aligned bounding-box (AABB) clash-detection math a real BIM coordination tool runs on one candidate routing height, computed here across every candidate height at once. The horizontal axis sweeps HVAC duct height, the vertical axis sweeps plumbing pipe height, and each point is colored live by the clash scan at that exact pair — turning a single-snapshot 3D walkthrough into a full phase-space map you can read at a glance. Drag the point (or the sliders) to explore routing options, widen the clearance tolerance to watch the clash bands grow, and press AI Auto-Resolve to watch the same generative grid search the 3D version runs, glide visibly across the map to the nearest clash-free cell.

⚙ Under the hood

2D companion to the 3D BIM clash detector: instead of dragging one duct/pipe height pair through a 3D structural bay, this map runs the same axis-aligned bounding-box (AABB) clash scan across the entire routing search space at once — every point is a candidate (duct height, pipe height) pair colored live by clash count and penetration/clearance, so the AI Auto-Resolve grid search visibly glides across a map you can already read instead of jumping to an opaque answer.
