- Abstract:
Research and development of a new sophisticated software environment to support building design decisions are presented. This new software, the Building Design Advisor (BDA), is intended as a research tool, teaching aid and, eventually, as a practical professional tool to facilitate both strategic and detailed decision-making throughout the design process from the early schematic phases of building design through to the detailed specification of building componentsand systems. BDA supports the integrated, concurrent use of multiple simulation tools and databases, while allowing output to support multi-criterion judgement. BDA's ultimate aims are to address the data needs of whole building life-cycle analysis: design, construction, commissioning, operation, performance and demolition.
