Description Climate change, technology, and regulation are among just some of the challenges faced by the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry in the design and build of modern buildings. This book explores these trends, highlighting how higher education and the construction sector can address the challenges through modern design practices and integrated approaches. It explores the conflicting design tensions in projects; the concept of Defornocere; the emerging role of the design manager and the importance of information modelling for enhanced design. Energy modeling and life-cycle analysis along with multidisciplinary building design and design trade-offs are covered, too. With case studies and supporting illustrations this book will guide you to a better understanding of modern building design. About the Author Dr Ricardo Codinhoto is an associate professor at the University of Bath, rated number one in the UK for architecture and research in the built environment. His research is focused on advancing design theory, practice and education, as well as methods that support design cognition and problem-solving.
