The development of an HBIM model for ancient wooden architecture (AWA) structures requires interdisciplinary integration. A parametric model for the main components that intelligently integrates the historical knowledge, as well as an intelligent modeling method for these components, are two critical issues required to bridge the existing gap and improve the application of HBIM. Taking an AWA structure constructed during the Liao and Song Dynasties as an example, the parametric model for the typical components, with emphasis on commonality and characteristics, were first proposed. Subsequently, an intelligent automated modeling method was developed and programmed using Dynamo, which can intelligently identify the component type and determine the invisible dimensions. A complicated dou-gong was successfully established with surveying data using the proposed method within five minutes, thereby validating the reliability and efficiency of this method. Furthermore, the proposed method was used to establish the HBIM model of Yingxian Wood Pagoda, which is the oldest and tallest AWA structure in China with a height of 65.88 m. The research findings will provide an essential reference for the conservation of wooden architectural heritage structures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijgi9030167","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,12]],"date-time":"2020-03-12T04:13:57Z","timestamp":1583986437000},"page":"167","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Development and Application of an Intelligent Modeling Method for Ancient Wooden Architecture"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Yonghui","family":"Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Future Urban Design, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aiqun","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Future Urban Design, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"},{"name":"School of Civil and Transportation Engineering, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory for Architectural Heritage Fine Reconstruction &amp; Health Monitoring, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3796-5271","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Linlin","family":"Xie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Future Urban Design, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"},{"name":"School of Civil and Transportation Engineering, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0942-629X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Miaole","family":"Hou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Future Urban Design, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory for Architectural Heritage Fine Reconstruction &amp; Health Monitoring, Beijing 100044, China"},{"name":"School of Geomatics and Urban Spatial Informatics, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ying","family":"Qi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Haoyu","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Future Urban Design, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1348","DOI":"10.1061\/(ASCE)0733-9445(2001)127:11(1348)","article-title":"Ancient Chinese timber architecture.
