Abstract

Today the environmental enrolment through the design process has become practically spread, embodying several aspects to adapt with the surroundings and sustain the world. The genuine environmental design criteria, especially the economic and environmental sustainability have been extensively researched; however, the remaining criteria, social sustainability, is less perceived during the design process and rarely implemented in the final product. This is probably because social aspects are harder to define and are often thought as externalities. Hence, the social aspect could stately impact the users and beyond the familiar dimensions of the environment it deals with psychology, feelings, and sense of place whether natural or built environment. Yet, there is an environment that demand a high technical, potential. Several challenging constraints usually come from the natural dimension, so it demands more than physical or practical potential to create a structure capable to withstand such an excessive conditions the human could not survive this environment is to be the extreme environment. Sometimes human needs to invade these extreme levels for many purposes; researches, traveling. thus, in this situation it can be said the researchers and practitioners are dealing with the extreme-built environment. Moreover, the psychological studies are stately difficult to be indicated and hardly to be measured, and in terms of environmental psychology, the relationship between human and his surroundings could be validated by various levels of studies to observe, survey, and predict all of the behavioral activities within a particular space. Comparably, the deal with extreme-built environment has the original studies in the field of environmental psychology besides the extreme indicators that definitely affect the users, designers, and the extreme-built environment itself. So, the excessive need to dovetail all the process’s dimensions; psychological studies within the built-environment in its extreme theme, has some sensitive restrictions in their engagement, so the need for a tool to study, observe, and assess the process would guide to find a flexible tool especially in comparing multiple disciplines, this is to be the multidimensional matrix. This thesis aims at enrolling the all stated procedures, guiding the researchers to be involved in such a multidisciplinary study of one of the most extreme-built environment, and using the multidimensional matrix tool to apply the behavioral, built, and extreme indicators. The aircraft considered a very important application for this study as it has some various behavioral activities besides the extreme conditions the passengers could not survive. Subsequently, this thesis would showcase this multidisciplinary study to retrofit this such extreme -built environment enrolling the behavioral criteria.
