| Abstract |
As the size and complexity of architectural development projects are increasing, the developing business plays a leading role in the domestic construction industry. Only deals most existing project feasibility analysis with financial aspect excluding qualitative elements such as social, cultural values of architecture, which cannot be easily measured.
This study views a pre-design process as a series of conscious actions for eliminating the misfits between an existing situation and project goals, using knowledge and experience; that is, a conscious problem-solving process or one of information-processing. It reviews information needed in the process and the characteristics of information-processing in the pre-design step, throughout the case study of a architectural development project.
This study asserts the characteristics of this information-processing as a series of uncertain, idiosyncratic and recurring processes, therefor this process cannot be explained by an algorithmic problem-solving process model, but by heuristic strategies that the experience or a rule of thumb can be mainly used. In this view, this study proposes the GIS(Geographic Information System) analysis method as means of a heuristic strategy in order to get more rational decision-making in the feasibility analysis problem space. Finally this study insists on the positive participation and concern of the professional design practice and architectural design research on the feasibility analysis of architectural development project. |
