Report from the 1984 Workshop on Advanced Technology for Building Design and Engineering. Held in Woods Hole, Massachusetts on June 17-22, 1984

摘要

Thirty invited participants attended the 1984 Workshop on Advanced Technology for Building Design and Engineering. Architecture, engineering and computer sciences were the primary disciplines represented. Participants came from federal agencies, universities, architecture and engineering firms, computer companies, and research organizations. Participants divided into three working groups during the workshop. These were: (1) Considerations for Data Capture. This group addressed questions about data capture throughout the entire life span of a building; (2) Project Data Utilization Interfaces. This group considered the range of interface issues that must be addressed before an integrated data base for the building process can be developed; (3) Data-Base Requirements for Analytic Methods in Early Design Decisions and Post-Construction Feedback. This group's objective was to examine the quality of building by maintaining the intent and philosophy of the building throughout its life cycle. Each working group produced a report that can be found in Part I of the document.
