Unit 4: Architectural Analysis: Chapter 4

Researcher will analyse those collected data in chapter four of research to discover new facts and evident for supporting the architectural research objectives regarding to the architectural components and subcomponents in the theoretical framework. Hence, in the qualitative part, the meaningful aspect of analysing will be addressed the deepness and significance of data to identify new aspects of facts in the research based on interpretation, connotation, and explanation. However, in the quantitative part, data will compute to discover agglomeration and frequency of data based on techniques. Therefore, the analysis part should show accountability, validity, and ability of data and methods in four categorical parts as below:

4-1 precedent analysis: in this part students should select some precedents similar to the topic or project to identify and address those achievements of the project those can be applied in the own project.

4-2: context analysis: in this part students should analyse the context of the project based on the inter and intra-connections with the context. Therefore, scale and the size of the context is depended into the topic, title, and research questions. The results of the context analysis should highlight the significance effectiveness and effected elements or aspect on the site.

4-3: Site analysis: all the data related to the physical and nonphysical aspect of the site should analyse in this part with clear and systematic classification and hierarchy in different layer to highlight significance aspects of the site.

4-4 Data analysis: this group of data includes all aspect of data the student going to collect in the field or borrow secondary data. Therefore, according to the Methods part of the chapter three, students should arrange data and analysis one by one in the same structure. So, in the part, students should mention the process of data collection and analysis in the clear way of explanation and presentation.
