RESUMO:

The recent introduction of parametric modeling tools to the design process has offered to architects the opportunity to experiment unprecedent geometrical shapes. But along with this freedom, comes the difficulty to get the building shape materialization, which is usually neglected in the early design stages. This difficulty of thinking the materialization since the beginning can led to decharacterizations of the initial design in subsequent phases, causing significant changes especially during the construction phase, or making the design unfeasible to construction. This context demands, in the design process, a high integration between structure, material, fabrication and construction. This complexity requires, according to the literature, a group or team working collaboratively, especially combining the expertise of architects and civil engineers. This scenario drove us to the following research question: “How constructibility affects parametric design process?”. Assuming that the knowledge of building constructive constraints, by a collaborative team, optimizes architectural shape, thus saving time and construction costs, our hypothesis is that constructive aspects (design practical constraints), in parametric design process, assume the role of radical constraints, those that guide or are the essential basis of certain design processes, leading more easily the design process and the building construction. More specifically, parametric modeling can be a tool that goes beyond the creation of complex shapes: it can incorporate constructive aspects and make constructibility easier. The study object comprises the relations between constructibility and parametric design process. This research aims to analyze how constructibility aspects, considered by a collaborative team, affects the parametric design process. The research method is based on the constructive research, divided in problem comprehension (phase I), proposition of a solution (phase II) and validation (phase III). The phase I, of comprehension, is composed by the following stages: theoretical-conceptual and empirical basis; design experiments with architects and civil engineers; and analysis of a parametric design course in a foreign architecture school. The phase II, of proposition, will be destinated to the indication of methodological guidelines, while the phase III, of validation, will evaluate the methodological guidelines by submitting it to specialists in the field of Parametric Design, in order to create a panel of experts. We expect to contribute to the CAAD (Computer Aided Architectural Design) field with a discussion on how constructibility affects the parametric design process and with the proposition of methodological guidelines to a parametric design process focused on constructibility.
