Shih, N J and Lan, W J (1997) Incorporating a 3D urban environmental model (3DUEM) into government and architectural firms. Building Research & Information, 25(1), pp. 18-24. ISSN 0961-3218
Abstract
The authors, participating in a government study, confirm, that computer simulation can be used as an effective tool to evaluate design quality in an urban environment. The Taipei example is to be extended to other parts of the city and eventually to all the metropolitan areas in Taiwan with an improved application of 3DUEM.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
