Abstract: The present paper applies knowledge graph technology to design compliance checking, and proposes an Automatic Compliance Checking (ACC) system based on standard knowledge graph. Through analyzing Chinese standards and structural design rules (hereinafter collectively referred to as standards), the atomic structure of knowledge graph for the minimum semantic unit is created, and some rules for linking the atomic structures are developed, thus establishing a method for constructing a building standard knowledge graph (BSKG) with the atomic structure as basic-element. By applying data from the graph to the data-driven code generation module, the executable codes for both information retrieval and compliance checking can be automatically generated, thus enabling BIM model's compliance checking to be automatically conducted.
