LANGUAGE SYSTEM FOR DENOTATION OF ARCHITECTURAL FORM

计算机技术在建筑设计中的应用具有巨大的潜力，可以使设计师有更多的时间进行创造性的思考。本研究的目的是通过发展语言系统来支持设计师表达他对建筑形式的想法，从而提高他们的潜力。通过对建筑文献中收集的词汇和实验结果进行分类，概述了表征建筑形式的语言系统的基本要求；a)通过语言表达来表示FARNSWORTH HOUSE的形式，b)仅从语言表达中做出FARNSWORTH HOUSE的平面和立面。基于上述需求，提出了一个基本模型，作为表示建筑形式的语言系统。该模型作为CAD系统的一部分实现，并验证了其使用效率。为了完善基本模型，本文还提出了语言系统的第二种模型。利用人工智能语言实现了该模型。通过对具有复杂细节的原型屋面系统的表示应用的多次试验，发现建筑师在建筑形式上使用了不明文的外延。当在建筑设计中很常见的时候，比如建筑的可框架性，或者从不完整的表达中可以猜测的时候，他们会缩写他们的表达。构造了建筑形式表示系统的子系统，支持从缩略语表达到计算机的完整信息。第一个系统是保持设计建筑的框架性。第二个系统称为类比模型。该系统能够在用户设计的方案中发现一种规律，并猜测其在设计方案中的任务。

The utilization of computer technology in architectural design has enormous potentials to enable the designer to put more time in thinking creative thoughts. The aim of this study is to enhance the potentials by developing language system which supports the designer to express his idea of architectural form.Fundamental requirements for the language system to denote architectural form are outlined through categolyzing the vocabularies collecting from architectural literatures and as results of experiments; a) denoting the form of FARNSWORTH HOUSE by language expression and b) making a plan and elevation of FARNSWORTH HOUSE only from the language expression.A basic model which is based on the above requirements is proposed as a language system denoting architectural form. This model is implemented as a part of CAD system and is tested its efficiency in utilization.In order to improve the basic model, the second model of the language system is also was proposed. An implementation of this model is achieved by using artificial intelligence language. Through a number of tests in application of denoting the prototype roof system which has some complicated details, it is found that architects use unwritten denotation on architectural form. They abbreviate their expression when it is very common in architectural design such as a framableness of building or when it is possible to guess from incomplete expression.Subsystems of architectural form denoting system, which support to make a complete information in computer from the abbreviative expression, were constructed. First system is to keep a framableness of designed building. The second system is called an analogy model. It is able to find a kind of laws in plans which have been designed by the user of this system and to guess his assignment in designing plan.
