Description: Feng Shui is a body of ancient Chinese wisdom which aimed at creating a harmony among environment, buildings and people. The Form School is based on the understanding of physical configuration of geographical features and is the most dominant approach that has had a great impact on Chinese architecture. However, the development of Feng Shui principles and Form School practices are complicated and there are lots of misunderstanding and confusion. This book provides a scientific approach of applying Feng Shui knowledge to preliminary building design evaluation through the representation of Feng Shui knowledge in a structured framework and the development of a prototype model using Knowledge-Based Expert Systems approach. The analysis provides a new understanding of how the outcomes of Feng Shui knowledge structured and represented in a scientific manner.
