Abstract. The article is devoted to the application of information modeling capabilities for creating complex building structures using the example of an arched truss using the Dynamo visual programming environment. The authors consider the advantages of using this technology in the design of building objects and the features of working with the Revit program, which is the main tool for implementing the presented project. Using automation of the design of arched trusses through writing scripts in Dynamo can significantly reduce time costs and improve the accuracy of calculations. The purpose of the study: to develop a method for the automated creation of an information model of an arched truss in Revit using Dynamo, to optimize the modeling process. The article provides examples of specific problems solved using this approach, and discusses the prospects for further development of information modeling technology in construction.
