碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 建築與都市設計研究所 === 102 === “Collaborative Architectural Design” represents a process of mutual cooperation between different professionals, communities and resources to solve problems together and to create environments. “Architecture for Humanity” is a concrete action to implement humane doctrine in architectures. Collaborative Architectural Design teams with university teachers and students as major taskforce are solidly rooted in many schools, and these teams continue to serve many areas in Taiwan. Considering the commonality of study background, architecture type and construction scale, we chose six cases from two projects in this case study: the “Core” project lead by and continuously implemented by Institute of Architecture of National Taipei Technology University and the “Architecture for Humanity, Tai-Tung” project lead by and implemented by the “Architecture for Humanity” laboratory of National Chiao-Tung University in the recent two years. Using these cases, we examined the experiences of implementing “Collaborative Architectural Design”. We constructed database from these accumulated experiences to provide feedback, and we investigate the implementation contents and operation model for future “Collaborative Architectural Design”. “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects such as “Architecture for Humanity” operated by University teams not only achieved tangible outcome goals, but also encompassed three core values in the societal, educational and professional domains. Based on the experiences in this study, we divided the objective and outcome of implementing “Collaborative Architectural Design” into four areas: 1.To construct hardware architectural infrastructure that provides environment that supports reading and cultural heritage: There is one bamboo building structure and five wood building structures in this study based on the building construction classification. 2. To orchestra soft infrastructure that provides activities of collective learning and education: Each case in this study held a variety of soft infrastructures such as activities and curriculum during the process of project implementation to provide students and volunteers in “Collaborative Architectural Design” project opportunities for participation of learning. 3. Open information technology programs aiming at promoting the concept of “Collaborative Architectural Design”, recruitment plans and consolidating the concept of open technology: In this study, recruitment plans were broadcasted on the internet to achieve publicity. However, the implementation of the “open technology” concept was still insufficient. 4. Promote recruitment plans that can facilitate the consolidation of “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects: All cases in this project used internet as a platform to announce fund raising and manpower recruitment information for the promotion of project implementation. All cases of “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects in this study had common objectives, however, the implementation processes and outcomes were different. This may due be to the fact that not all “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects were assembled and led by professionals. Therefore, different issues surfaced when attempting to achieve implementation goals without proper planning of project phases and contents: The first effect was on the construction of hardware infrastructures with poor handling of construction plans and progresses during the construction process. Many cases in this project created soft infrastructures such as various educational activities and curriculum to stimulate students’ creativity and to nurture service volunteers’ learning attitudes. However, cases in this study lacked proper planning for the contents of soft infrastructures to achieve objectives in their “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects. Sometimes this was limited and affected by the progress of hardware infrastructure construction, preventing the consolidation of soft infrastructure activities. There were no systematic databases or internet platform to satisfy the needs of individuals who wanted to retrieve information pertaining to project implementation outcomes based on the concept of consolidating open technology expected from using open information technologies. Recruitment plans aimed primarily at realizing the objectives of promoting “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects. However, observations based on past implementation experiences demonstrated that recruitment plans lacked corresponding objectives to hardware or soft infrastructures. These deficiencies resulted in insufficient fund, insufficient or redundant manpower, respectively. After understanding the corresponding relationship between various objectives of “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects, we further develop workflow and itemized task for each objective in this study. We also divided the process of implementing “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects into four stages: planning, preparation, implementation and follow-up stages. We expected to know the corresponding relationships between the appropriate stage to arrange planning and itemized tasks for each objective. Finally, we developed the key points for itemized task for each objective to serve as a basis for future implementation of “Collaborative Architectural Design” projects and reference model for operation.
