The role of evaluation in urban and architectural design processes is a current field of investigation, in the national context. Scholars in evaluation increasingly focus on the need for opening the “black box” of architectural design process, directing the evaluation discipline in making explicit and communicable its mechanisms. Currently, the role of evaluation in making explicit and communicable the reasons for the choices to be made is often deepened, on the one hand, in terms of exploring the architectural design process as an intellectual, ideational and creative practice, starting from a “generative idea”; on the other hand, in terms of its contribution with respect to the quality of the product – as buildings – in relation with the quality of the project in its drafting practices. This paper reflects on architectural design as a decision-making activity that needs to be unpacked in order to be supported by evaluation through specific tools and methodologies. In doing so, the attention is shifted from the material products of architecture – such as buildings – to the processes of proposal, negotiation and finalization of projects. Consequently, the main aim is a theoretical investigation on the role of some architectural design practices in relation to the ongoing decision-making process, by exploring the connections between these practices and their results and effects in the process. Il ruolo della valutazione nei processi di progettazione urbana e architettonica è un campo di indagine attuale, nel contesto nazionale. Gli studiosi di valutazione si concentrano sempre più sulla necessità di aprire la “scatola nera” del processo di progettazione architettonica, indirizzando la disciplina valutativa a rendere espliciti e comunicabili i suoi meccanismi. Attualmente, il ruolo della valutazione nel rendere esplicite e comunicabili le ragioni delle scelte da compiere viene spesso approfondito, da un lato, in termini di esplorazione del processo di progettazione architettonica come pratica intellettuale, ideativa e creativa, a partire da una “idea generativa”; dall’altro, in termini di contributo rispetto alla qualità del prodotto – gli edifici – in relazione alla qualità del progetto nelle sue pratiche di redazione. Questo articolo riflette sulla progettazione architettonica come attività decisionale che deve essere spacchettata per es- sere supportata dalla valutazione attraverso strumenti e metodologie specifiche. Nel fare ciò, l’attenzione si sposta dai prodotti materiali dell’architettura – come gli edifici – ai processi di proposta, negoziazione e finalizzazione dei progetti. Di conseguenza, l’obiettivo principale è un’indagine teorica sul ruolo di alcune pratiche di progettazione architettonica in relazione al processo decisionale in corso, esplorando le connessioni tra queste pratiche e i loro risultati ed effetti nel processo.
Research in the uncertainty as a phenomenon of the business interaction produces extraordinary challenges in management theory and methodology. The scientific community has usually understood a substantive impact on the uncertainty as a potential opportunity to neutralize a measure of fundamental unpredictability. At the same time, sustainability in any development is a result of balancing between faces of the certainty and the uncertainty. Solving this question, we point out to a need in the selective control. With this end in view, the paper has provided rationalization for a scientific approach to scale (grade) values of the "individual" uncertainty that serves as a quality classification tool for alternatives that are a part of a single case (event) set. Besides, the paper has elaborated a method to evaluate the system uncertainty specifying the standard errors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
