Thesis (M.E.Des.)--University of Calgary (Canada), 2001.

Buildings are an omnipresent aspect of human culture, both past and present. The diversity of these structures is emphasized by the various construction materials used such as grass, concrete, adobe or bone and also by the numerous ways in which we study them, through architecture, engineering, historic preservation and archaeology. It is argued that the 'diverse' construction methods, material components and professional approaches to analysis can be bridged through the use of Building Science. By definition, Building Science utilizes scientific and practical principles common in all built objects that ground structures into a common framework (i.e., shelter, heat transfer, etc.) and applies this framework to the functional requirements of each building. Using a cross-temporal examination of built forms in the Canadian High Arctic (Thule culture whalebone house, Snowhouse, prefabricated House) this thesis demonstrates the utility of Building Science as a holistic tool to provide new information to each of the professional disciplines that study buildings. While not a process in itself, this thesis will demonstrate that Building Science is a theoretical tool that can be used in the context of any structure, from any time period and any geographical location.
