Thus the paper discusses the benefits of using parametric design and computational approach in the design process of Architects as well as in the construction works. It goes on to provide practical examples of parametric projects and feasible building production technology used elsewhere that is exceptionally efficient.<\/p>\n<p>The paper continues to provide relevant ideas relating to the topic of parametric such as the use of algorithm and codebased scripting cultures. However, the paper attempts to demonstrate computational design beyond the perception of merely a drafting tool but offering assistance to Architects in design thinking. Detail analysis of ideas suggests the appropriate solutions that are applicable to the context of terraced houses in Malaysia to the advantage of sustainability, socially and needs. The paper concludes that parametric design in the computational approach has the potentials to transform the practice of terraced houses development in the future.<br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white\"><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: black;color: white;font-size: small\">\u00a0Reference to the Study.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Aiman has since received his Ph.D. award in January 2019.<br \/>\nThis dissertation was submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MSc Sustainable Architectural Studies in 2012.<br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: black;color: white;font-size: small\"><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: black;color: white;font-size: small\">Other Research Posters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For other research posters, please refer<span style=\"background-color: white\"><span style=\"background-color: white\">\u00a0<\/span><a style=\"background-color: white\" href=\"https:\/\/people.utm.my\/ands\/2023\/04\/08\/hello-world\/\">here<\/a><span style=\"background-color: white\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Introduction\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keywords: terraced houses, parametric design, computational, prefabrication This study is an illustration of how terraced houses in Malaysia could benefit from the use of parametric design process throughout its development.
