Özet

A parametric model is a computer representation of a design made with geometric shapes with constant and variable properties. Variable attributes are called parameters. The designer can change the parameters in the parametric model to search for different alternative solutions to the problems in the model. The parametric model is obtained automatically by changing the only parameters without needing to changing or redraw. In this study, it is aimed to give information about the concepts, advantages, application areas and applicability of parametric modeling. Also modeled using parametric modeling and examples from a numerical example selected as the best student project in the category of international competition are given. In this study, it has been seen that parametric modeling provides convenience in terms of time and application. This method, which is among the latest trends of the technology age, accelerated the development of works in the field of architecture, civil engineering and industry.
