The writing style remains primarily visual and tabular, supplemented by concise text. This is the fourth volume. The newly revised "Architectural Design Data Collection" has the following characteristics: First, it is more systematic and comprehensive, covering all professional knowledge related to architectural design. It encompasses various fields of architectural design both in the past and present, both domestically and internationally. It not only has a close and integrated relationship with disciplines such as water supply, heating, electricity, sanitation, architectural structures, and architectural economics, but also involves numerous knowledge areas such as philosophy, aesthetics, sociology, ergonomics, and behavioral and environmental psychology. Second, during this revision, except for a few items retained from the original version, most of the content has been significantly updated or enriched. New additions include: Morphological Composition; Landscape Gardening; Environmental (Small Environmental Features); Urban Squares; Ancient Chinese Architecture; Folk Dwellings; Architectural Decoration; Interior Design; Barrier-Free Design; Commercial Streets; Metro; Rural Residential Buildings; Courthouses; Banks; Computer Rooms; Solar Applications, etc. Additionally, the technical parameters, quota indicators, and design principles listed in the new version are selected from updated design codes, and all design examples are comprehensively revised, making this large-scale tool more practical. Third, the writing system has clear classifications and convenient reference. General topics with universal applicability are compiled in the first two volumes, while the other volumes are dedicated to various types of civil buildings, industrial buildings, and architectural structures. Fourth, the new edition's design and layout of the cover and pages maintain the unique style of the original version, ensuring the continuity of this large-scale reference book. However, the paper materials and printing technology are more refined than the original version.
