Quantifying the Generality and Adaptability of Building Layouts Using Weighted Graphs: The SAGA Method

This paper presents an assessment method that uses weighted graphs to quantify a building’s capacity to support changes. The method is called Spatial Assessment of Generality and Adaptability (SAGA), and evaluates the generality (passive support for change) and adaptability (active support...
