Future of Fire Engineering: PDF to FDS - Save hours of work!

Create an FDS simulation from a floor plan—end-to-end. In this tutorial, Prof Rino shows how to convert a PDF plan into an IFC/BIM model, import it into a friendly FDS user interface (e.g., PyroSim), set up the mesh, add a burner/VENT with material properties and an HRR curve, run FDS, and visualize results in Smokeview. Perfect for fire protection engineers, researchers, and students wanting a fast, repeatable workflow. Chapters (Timestamps) 00:00 Intro & goals 00:30 What is FDS + workflow overview 03:00 PDF floor plan → IFC/BIM (auto-build & checks) 05:30 Import IFC to UI & set mesh (cell size, units) 07:10 First run & quick fixes (T_END, warnings) 08:20 Add burner/VENT, SURF/MATL, HRR curve 09:50 Run FDS & visualize in Smokeview + next steps What you’ll learn Converting a PDF floor plan → IFC/BIM for simulation Importing IFC into an FDS UI and auto-meshing Adding vents/burners, surfaces, materials (e.g., polyurethane), and HRR growth Setting simulation duration and avoiding tiny runtimes (0.001 s gotcha) Viewing results in Smokeview and sanity-checking geometry/smoke spread Tools & files shown FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator) + Smokeview (visualization) IFC/BIM pipeline from a PDF floor plan An FDS-friendly UI (e.g., PyroSim by Thunderhead Engineering) Pro tips Start coarse (larger cells), validate, then refine the mesh. Always set a realistic simulation duration (T_END) before running. Use material-appropriate HRR curves and double-check vent/surface IDs. Verify geometry in Smokeview before long runs. Who is this for? Fire protection engineers, building scientists, CFD beginners, and students needing a practical, reproducible FDS workflow from 2D plans.
