Using computational design tools to create meaningful digital representations of architectural heritage delivers both challenges and opportunities. On one hand, digital tools aid the fast and detailed three-dimensional modeling of architectural elements. On the other hand, these models do not sufficiently document the materials and techniques of making. This research proposes a workflow to use computational design tools to analyze historic Anatolian brick elements while integrating their geometry, construction, and part-whole relations in parametric modeling and robotic fabrication processes. Our approach demonstrates a correlation between the design of the surface pattern and material application in historical bricklaying. The proposed workflow can be applied to formalize implicit design knowledge, integrating it into the digital environment and numeric control production codes. This holistic approach to heritage prioritizes both the tangible aspects, such as form and material, and intangible aspects such as the knowledge base of applied techniques.

使用计算设计工具创建有意义的建筑遗产数字表示既带来了挑战也带来了机遇。一方面，数字工具有助于快速、详细地对建筑元素进行三维建模。另一方面，这些模型没有充分记录制作的材料和技术。这项研究提出了一个工作流程，使用计算设计工具来分析历史上的安纳托利亚砖元素，同时在参数化建模和机器人制造过程中集成它们的几何形状、结构和部分整体关系。我们的方法证明了历史砌砖中表面图案设计和材料应用之间的相关性。所提出的工作流程可用于形式化隐式设计知识，将其集成到数字环境和数控生产代码中。这种对遗产的整体方法优先考虑有形方面，例如形式和材料，以及无形方面，例如应用技术的知识基础。
