Objectives not supplied

Aims and methods (as at end of award) : 1. To assemble a series of linked data bases describing the national non-domestic building stock in terms of a series of characteristics of interest from the planning point of view, giving breadth of coverage a higher priority than detail. 2. To collect data in two forms : general summary data about non- domestic stock as a whole (total floor areas classified by use and geographical location), and data relating to specific types of use (educational, office etc.) to provide additional information about building construction and fuel demand. 3. To prepare a series of parametric formulations of statistical relationships between floor area, location, age, form of construction, type of use and fuel demand of the building types in question, with a view to incorporating these relationships into the TRANUS or other models.
