- Abstract
- The purpose of the report is to provide an overview and some insight into the circumstances which constrain and influence architects when they must obtain information during the course of the design and construction process. It is intended for those outside the profession who wish to understand the conditions which influence the use of the information they provide to architects, and for architects who would consider the nature and context of their difficulties in obtaining information as they need it. It is, a brief guide to the major features of the problems and to the nature of their effects.
