Features: 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 across different eras and cultures; it not only has a close and integrated relationship with disciplines such as water supply, heating, electricity, sanitation, building structure, and building economy, 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 retained original content, most of the content has been significantly updated or supplemented. Newly added items include: form composition; landscape gardening; environmental ornaments; urban squares; ancient Chinese architecture; residential buildings; architectural decoration; interior design; barrier-free design; commercial streets; subways; rural residential buildings; courthouses; banks; computer rooms; solar energy applications, etc. Additionally, the technical parameters, quota indicators, and design principles listed in the new version are selected from updated design specifications, and all design examples have been comprehensively revised, making this large-scale tool more practical. Third, in terms of the writing system, the classification is clear and easy to access. General categories are compiled in volumes 1 and 2, while other volumes are dedicated to various types of civil, industrial, and building structural designs. Fourth, the new edition's cover design and layout arrangement maintain the unique style of the original version, ensuring the continuity of this large-scale reference book, but the paper materials and printing techniques are more exquisite than the original version.
