在本文中，我们开发了一种新的方法，通过将系统思维集成到体系结构设计中，将其过程映射到标准过程建模语言中。我们使用流程映射工作流构建了一个决策支持框架，将可持续建筑材料和基于资源的设计决策纳入建筑实践。我们求助于其他学科的知识库，如商业信息技术(BIT)，开发了设计-投标-建造项目交付方法(DBB)的工作流程。映射当前和提议的设计流程，包括它们的活动、工作流程和决策节点，对于定义角色、信息流和后续决策至关重要。在这项研究中，我们使用定性方法从基于资源的设计的行业专家那里获取所需的知识，然后将我们的发现整合到一组流程图中，以支持建筑项目团队的材料决策。这项研究建立了一个信息交换系统，以支持新兴的再利用商店和供应商行业的发展。通过与建材再利用行业专家的多次访谈和知识获取会议，他们承认缺乏一个“信息交换系统”。正是通过这项研究，一个整体的信息交换系统将连接再利用行业和AEC行业之间的联系。这项研究的主要成果是一个具有资源重用的结构化设计过程。这一过程将通过引入新程序重新定义DBB传统设计过程，定义信息交换并确定拟议过程中的关键决策，确定责任并确定关键利益相关者。作者在行业专家的建设性反馈下，进行了一个广泛的多年知识获取过程。
In this paper, we develop a novel method for integrating system thinking into architectural design by mapping its processes in a standard process modeling language. We structured a decision-support framework using process mapping workflows to incorporate sustainable building materials and resource-based design decisions into the architectural practice. We turned to other disciplines’ knowledgebases, such as Business Information Technology (BIT), to develop a workflow for the Design-Bid-Build project delivery method (DBB). Mapping both current and the proposed design processes, including their activities, workflow, and decision nodes, was critical in defining roles, flow of information, and subsequent decisions. In this study, we utilized a qualitative methodology to capture the required knowledge from industry experts in resource-based design and then integrated our findings into a set of process maps to support the materials decisions by the architectural project team. This study establishes a system of information exchange to support the growth of the newly emerging industry of reuse stores and vendors. Through numerous interviews and knowledge capturing sessions with industry experts from the building material reuse industry that acknowledged an absence of a "system of information exchange." It is through this study that an overall system of information exchange will connect the links between the reuse industry and the AEC industry. The primary outcome of this study is a structured process for design with resource reuse. This process will redefine the DBB traditional design process by introducing new procedures, define information exchange and identify key decisions within the proposed processes, define responsibilities and identify key stakeholders. The author conducted an extensive multi-year knowledge capturing process with constructive feedback from the industry experts.
