Abstract
The use of the Decision by Exclusion rule is illustrated in the design of external walls of single-family dwellings in Montreal. Performance objectives are specified, candidate solutions are generated, the predicted performance of each alternative is estimated and measured in utility scales. The application of the Decision by Exclusion rule for comparing the multi-attributed alternatives is demonstrated in three stages: (a) with no preferences among performance objectives; (b) with simple preferences; and (c) with partially-ordered sets of preferences. The sensitivity of decisions to changes in the designer's input is also considered.
