Yes, computational design can be used to optimize construction time or cost. By using advanced computational tools and techniques, designers and engineers can simulate various construction scenarios and analyze them to determine the best approach to minimize construction time or cost. For example, parametric modeling can be used to quickly generate multiple design options and evaluate their impact on construction time and cost. Optimization algorithms can also be used to identify the optimal design solution based on specific project constraints and objectives. Additionally, BIM (Building Information Modeling) can be used to support efficient planning and coordination among different contractors and trades, which can help reduce construction time and cost.
