A field plot showing connections between “Knowledge Requirement” and “Building Lifecycle Phase”.The plot comprises two vertical scales. The first scale on the left is labeled “Knowledge Requirement” and comprises the following divisions from top to bottom: “Aesthetic considerations”, “Material considerations”, “System requirements”, “Insulation requirements”, “Support requirements”, “Clearance requirements”, “Functional requirements”, “Space requirements”, “Cost requirements”, “Sequencing requirements”, “Configuration”, “Construction tolerance”, “Construction varience”, “Construction productivity”, “Fabrication considerations”, “Access requirements”, “Safety considerations”, “Sustainability Considerations”, “Energy use requirements”, “Comfort requirements”, and “Expandability or Retrofit requirements”. The second scale on the right is labeled “Building Lifecycle Phase” and comprises the following divisions from top to bottom: “Design-based”, “Construction-based”, and “O and M-based”. The chart shows interconnections between “Knowledge Requirement” and “Building Lifecycle Phase”.
