A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Heuristic aids to planning are almost as old as architecture. The earliest aids are mostly concerned with conceptual organisation. Recent developments in overall planning heuristics have focused on convenience. Analysis of adjacency and privacy have been typical concerns. According to an hypothesis advanced in Heath (1), a plan consists of a fusion of form information and system information. From this viewpoint, existing planning heuristics old and new are deficient, because partial. This paper presents a new heuristic which combines a number of existing methods. Some limitations of the new heuristic are indicated and directions for further research proposed.
